Yen, Lin Wing Yan (b.1997), is a Hong Kong-based Contemporary Artist and Painter. She graduated with a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Visual Arts from Hong Kong Baptist University and a BA in Fine Art from Birmingham City University (VTC Shape). Her work uses various materials, combining drawing with space and installation to communicate and challenge a broad range of social issues that affect the everyday lives of Hong Kong's young residents.
Her current work explores the mediation between ideas of spirituality and romance with personal space, looking into our relationship towards "intimacy" and how it is perceived in Hong Kong society. Yen's work uses narrative-based storytelling to address her experiences of living and working in the city. She aims to open up an honest conversation around how we experience 'romance', questioning what it means to love and to be intimate in Hong Kong.
