Nemo Chen (陈薪旭) is a photographer and visual artist from China, based in Chicago, Illinois. She describes her artwork as a personalized, figurative, and narrative expression from a Gen Z Chinese artist. The mutually constraining relationship between the external world and the inward self has been a long-standing theme in her experiments. Her work explores the infinity and the boundaries of individuals, the variations of one’s self-identity, and the fluidity exuded in changing conditions. Chen desires to visualize and contextualize a hazy, blank-leaving, poetic language in her artistic narratives, through the creativity stimulated by her inner world and surroundings.
