about.
Yen Melia Andreas (b. 1996) is an architectural graduate from Parahyangan Catholic University with a lifelong passion for art. She is also an incoming MA Fine Art candidate at LASALLE College of the Arts in Singapore. In addition, she has completed an online Fine Art Mastery program at the Milan Art Institute and participated in an artist incubation program called AMP, run by Atreyu Moniaga. Raised in a traditional Chinese-Indonesian home, Yen became acutely aware of the limitations placed on women. She uses her paintings to communicate her personal experiences and emotions, often depicting sweet, pastel-colored characters surrounded by floral elements. These female figures, while often placed in uncomfortable situations, are portrayed in sensitive, intimate scenes. Through her artwork, Yen demonstrates how grace and finesse can convey strength and resilience—qualities that transcend the limitations imposed by gender and ethnicity.
