Description
Chen's multimedia works explore the boundaries between reality and illusion, revealing the hidden dream sequences that underlie everyday life. Through staged photographs that are both idealistic and ominous, he negotiates the symbolic tropes of photography.

His practice is characterized by a nuanced exploration of the human experience in contemporary society.
