ABOUT

Hello, I’m Yiwei Chen, an illustrator and designer based in Atlanta, currently pursuing an MFA in Illustration at SCAD. My work focuses on editorial, publishing, and fashion, combining narrative imagery with a dark, experimental visual language. I explore mood, symbolism, and visual storytelling through stylized forms and detailed compositions.
