ABOUT THE ARTWORK

NOTE: The artwork image is highly degraded when uploading to Saatchi Art's website. ----- In June 2020, I was commissioned to work on several large paintings for a property developer in Hong Kong. The company was seeking for bright and energetic paintings that would be hung in a busy lobby space in Hong Kong. Those paintings are now complete but will be installed in early 2021. The painting shown here is a condensed version of the original with fewer colours and lines. I have called the sub-series 'Metrowire' -- to reflect the various transport and energy systems that occupy the fabric of the city's internal and external boundaries. Each painting, although designed using computer software, is hand-painted, which invites the viewer into its space on a more intimate, macro level.

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.
