Enikő Tomay (b. 2000, Budapest) is a multidisciplinary artist living and working in London. Graduating from Central Saint Martins with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art, she works across tufting, drawing and ceramics.

Enikő’s practice is centred around the relationship between the human and nonhuman, examining where the two meet and entwine. She creates folkloric environments within which beastly creatures roam free, rearing their heads. Tactility and texture play an integral role in her work. There is a delicate brutality to the way ceramics and wool interact; the juxtaposition of hard and soft, violently stitched and tightly bound. Through this, she plays with dynamics of attraction and repulsion, taking something familiar and situating it in a way that creates unease; nothing is as it seems. This allows her to interrogate mortality, anthropomorphism and to think about feelings of belonging and displacement alike.
