Lu Chen

Lu Chen is an artist whose work embodies the essence of restlessness, rebellion, and provocation. She specializes in sound art, performance art, and conceptual art driven by the manipulation of words. Her creations are often intensely conceptual, resonating with warnings and deep humanistic concerns. At other times, they are filled with metaphorical meaning under poetic narratives, or they brim with rich emotion and interactivity. Through her art, Lu Chen challenges perceptions and invites audiences to engage in profound reflection and dialogue.

Artist Lu Chen personified a duck through texts, creating an absurd and humorous virtual story to imagine the future relationship between humans and animals. She expressed her condemnation of the practice of capturing animals for the sake of overbreeding.

life in the kitchen, sound artwork with installation, duration:7:20

Immersive kitchen sounds and family-style daily conversations, combined with flashback narrative table scenes, evoke imagination and memory through synesthesia. Kitchen life is an ordinary day in the life of a Chinese housewife, trying to reflect the phenomenon of the Chinese family, provoking some thoughts about gender, family roles, family responsibilities, and hopefully bringing about some different cultural discussions.

What is it like to grow up ?

I imagined what it was like to grow up.

When I was a child, I slid down the slide happily.

At that time, I always longed to grow up. When adolescence

arrived, growing up and the years brought me the colorful icing on the donut,

with tears and crying, I tried to express it through beads.

We all know that once we have experienced what time

has brought to us, just like physical friction, we can no longer

sprint as happily, bravely and unscrupulously as we did when we were children.
