Manny Yip (b. 1994, Hong Kong) is a visual artist whose practice is deeply rooted in rural upbringing. Her work explores themes of childhood, growth, social norms, culture, and imagination and the complex interplay between personal introspection and external realities. By combining painting techniques and incorporating ready-made objects, she skillfully captures the nuanced emotions between feelings of familiarity and alienation. Through her art, Yip endeavors to shed new light on forgotten moments and everyday objects, inviting viewers to reexamine and reinterpret their significance.
2017 Yip earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from RMIT University. She continued her academic pursuits by earning a Master of Arts in Visual Arts from Hong Kong Baptist University in 2023. She was recognized as a Scholastic Award under the Targeted Taught Postgraduate Programmes Fellowships Scheme. Her solo exhibitions include “Children on a Conveyor” and “Return To No Destination”. Yip has also been invited as a selected artist for various commercial and educational projects. Her work is held in private collections.
