Andrew Yee, Content Creator & Writer
Andrew Yee is the lead content creator, editor and writer for Life Without Andy’s ‘Mad Love’ section. ‘Mad Love’ was conceived to shine light on the stories of niche pioneering artists and the importance of alternative cultures. Yee’s passion for colourful and coherent storytelling has led to an eclectic array of subjects: from daredevils who jump off of top ropes, K-pop stars, burger experts, fierce ball veterans, sneakerheads, to renowned illustrators and decorated street artists. During his time at Life Without Andy, Yee has created several new features to tell refreshing and under the radar narratives, including the on-camera docuseries ‘Mad Love’, the ‘Illustrated Interview’ series, ‘Top 5 Art Shows To See This Month’, along with written interviews and editorials.
Yee has collaborated on features and interviews with The Orchard, The National Gallery of Victoria, The Art Gallery Of New South Wales, 4A Centre For Contemporary Asian Art, Brainfeeder records, WWE, EN Management, Red Bull, Sexpo, Babekuhl, Half Symbolic Films and The Japan Foundation, along with cultivating compelling written pieces with a number of independent artists.
