A narrative illustration created for 56 Beaver Street in New York (also known as the Delmonico's Building and 2 South William Street), set on a gray, snowy day in January. As snowflakes gently settle on rooftops and balconies, everything is enveloped in a profound silence. The traffic lights glow, but there are few pedestrians. She waits for someone here. This solitary moment is also a quintessential part of New York.
About Yuewei
Chinese illustrator Yuewei Nino Lee couldn’t be better named. “The name Yuewei means ‘to observe carefully’,” she explains. “I have always enjoyed quietly observing the world and then depicting it along with the people in it as I see them.” Her work will take you on an imaginative journey into a strange, fairytale existence where gleeful, manga-esque characters frolic in sparkling metropolises.
