Manny Yip is a visual artist born in 1994 and is currently based in Hong Kong. She received her BAFA from the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University in 2017 and her Master of Fine Arts (First Class) in Visual Arts from Hong Kong Baptist University in 2023.
Yip's artistic practice is rooted in her upbringing in a small village, which sparked her exploration of the relationship and boundaries between the personal inner world and the externally constructed reality. Her works are inspired by everyday experiences, childhood memories and historical imaginings, reflecting her aspirations and reflections on personal identity. She excels in using painting and found objects to present a delicate interplay between familiarity and alienation, aiming to recreate forgotten fragments and various everyday objects through her creations. Yip's affinity for literature, storytelling, and horticulture is evident in her work, often capturing childhood memories and immersing herself in reality and imagination. She constructs unique spaces that embody buried emotions, thoughts and essential qualities, bridging the past and present. Her artworks explore themes of life, growth, norms, heritage and imagination. Her artistic practice encompasses painting and installation, and her works are held in private collections.

葉氏創作始於在小村莊成長的背景，誘發思考個人內在與外建世界之間的關係與界線。作品以日常經歷聯想與童年及歷史的想像，同時反映她的嚮往及對個人身份的思考，擅長以繪畫及現成物呈現既悉識又疏離的微妙情感，希望透過創作重現被遺忘及各種零碎事物。葉氏喜歡文學，故事及種植，往往喜歡捕捉童年迴憶，總浸淫於現實與想像；過去與現在等人事物，建構獨有的空間呈現深埋的情緒、意念及本質性。作品主題觸及生命、成長、規範、承傳、幻想等。創作包括繪畫和裝置。作品為私人收藏。
