Artist Spotlight: Gwen Yip

A lovely series by Hong Kong-born, New York-based artist Gwen Yip. Discovered via our Submissions platform and selected as an Editor Pick, Yip’s paintings explore the loneliness and isolation of city life with delicacy and simplicity. See more images from “Backs (NYC)” below.
