ABOUT THE ARTWORK
The start of 2020 has been a tumultuous one with the outbreak of a coronavirus (Covid-19) in Wuhan, China, resulting in a surprise move to lock down the city in the middle of the lunar new year. The drastic measures, however, were not enough to contain the spread of the highly infectious novel coronavirus. The following painting was created as a response and reaction to the outbreak. The use of acrylics on thin porous papers lend well a water fluid-like painting, allowing the paint to dissolve and spread like a contagion. My choice of red and blue as colours complimented the rich mustard yellow print paper, resulting in a contrasting richness of both subdued and depth. Note: Limited edition artworks are signed and printed on archival quality papers such as Canon, Hahnemühle, or Moab. Signed artworks are personally approved by the artist and are considered originals. A Certificate of Authenticity accompanies the artwork.

Norm Yip
Canada
Norm Yip (葉灃) was born in Canada in 1963 by Chinese parents. After studying fine art in Saskatchewan and architecture in Toronto, he moved to Hong Kong where began working as an architect. In 1999, he decided to transition into fine art and photography, following his deeper passion into his personal interests. He formed a collective called Melo-Melo Artist Alliance with several friends. It was then that his journey into art began. Oscillating between photography as a main source of income and painting as a hobby, he began to assert more attention and time to the latter. He has exhibited numerously in both solo and group exhibitions in Hong Kong, and most recently in Bangkok, Italy and New York. He currently resides in his birthplace province of Saskatchewan, Canada where he continues to paint and photograph.
