"Wake Up, Pixoto!", a warning, an order, a mantra. Weng Pixin (Singapore) revisits his most vulnerable self in his art school days. She experiments with various identities, trying to understand who she is. Is she a sexual libertine? A visual artist? A sensitive friend? At that moment, a charismatic art teacher appears who helps her see her true value. She joins his tight-knit group of artistic researchers and begins his true education. But... Could it be that something sinister lurks beneath the surface? Rivalries develop, friends disappear or are expelled, your teacher's words take on a caustic tone. Pix becomes disoriented and less sure of herself than ever and begins to suspect that she has joined a cult... "Wake Up, Pixoto!" by Weng Pixin, published by Drawn & Quarterly in July 2025.
