報導
YiJie Chen
YiJie Chen (陳依婕) is an award winning freelance illustrator from Taiwan. Her clients include Bloomsbury Publishing UK, British Film Institute, ZtoryTeller Hong Kong, Renaissance Foundation Hong Kong and Tai Kwun Hong Kong, etc.
Her alias is "EJ" - a simple way to pronounce her name. YiJie graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in Scotland, with a MFA in Illustration. Her style gathers an evocative tone of manga linework, and surrealism together. YiJie enjoys movies and the supernatural. She excels in infusing her works with delicate emotions and magic. The characters in her stories wander through fleeting, illusory worlds, engaging in silent, profound contemplation amidst joy.
Instead of digging in art education early, YiJie gained a bachelor degree of French Language. After several years of work, including marketing one of her unfavoured products- surveillance camera in a tech company; serving one of her favourite snacks- macha tea (and) ice-cream in a over 100-years-old specialty tea shop in Osaka Japan. She made the twist of her life in 2018 - went to Scotland to pursue art after she realized an illustrator with soul was the role she desired to fit in most.
