Anthea Yip is a half-Italian and half-Chinese writer and artist. She is currently based in Hong Kong and completing her first novella. She also performs spoken word poetry, and publishes on literary blogs. Most of her artwork and written work explores the themes of conflict, evolution of identity, perception, and reality and how it inter-relates with social global issues. As an artist, she recognises she must observe the world as if everything unfolding before her is a delicate petal. Her creative process includes constantly breaking down the barriers of art and herself, experimenting, risking and pouring her soul into every brushstroke and word.
