Chen’s gallery art experiments with the viewers’ movement through space and time, seeking to suggest a connection between disparate visual and auditory elements. With the video camera, she applies images to poignant Taiwanese narratives bringing them together to create dynamic, spatially aware video installations. Her approach mixes experimental documentary with home video, and results in hyper-real states that blend scenes of everyday life with personal narratives.
