About The Artwork
This painting was painted in 2003, which I kept in storage, after not knowing if it was finished or needed reworking. Somehow, time itself worked on the piece; the vibrant colours somehow revealed a depth to the canvas that I didn't notice before. Even the title I named only last year. I wanted the artwork to have order and structure and glued a mesh onto the canvas and painted the surface in a rough, painterly way -- a code of sorts, like Braille or Morse. The code was akin to a message and reminded me of Totem poles I knew of in my Canadian upbringing.

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.
