Norm Yip – 葉灃

Norm Yip was born in Canada in 1963 to Chinese parents. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree (cum laude) in 1984 at the University of Saskatchewan and his Bachelor of Architecture degree in 1989 at the University of Toronto. In 1994, he moved to Hong Kong where he worked as a project architect for Wong & Tai Associates Ltd and RTKL International Ltd before pursuing his greater interest in art and photography. In 1999, he co-founded the art collective Meli-Melo Artists Alliance (MMAA) along with Betty Cheung and Wilson Chik, where he curated several exhibitions with artists such as Gavin Tu (Hong Kong), the late Neung or Panuwat Hoonbamrung (Thailand) and Oksana Movchan (Canada). Shortly thereafter, he formed his own photography company Norm Yip Photography, in addition to Studio 8, a semi-public photographic and art space located in the district of Sheung Wan — where he hosted private and selected exhibitions in the mediums of photography, painting and graphite.
