ANDREA WAn is a Hong Kong-born, Vancouver-raised Visual Artist and Illustrator. After completing her studies in Integrated Media and Design at Emily Carr University and Designskolen Kolding in Denmark, she moved to Berlin where she focused on studio work and continue travelling for mural projects. Andrea perceives her practice as a vessel for her stream of consciousness, expressed through mediums like ink on paper, murals, print, and sculptures. Exploring themes of interconnectedness in nature and the human psyche, her work has graced gallery spaces and murals spanning Europe, North America, and Asia. Currently based in Vancouver BC, Andrea's creative journey continues to shed light on cultural diversity and the intangibility of the human experience.
