Artist Statement

BILIN CHEN

I explore concepts and possibilities through realistic experiences with disciplines including humanities, ethics, cognitive science, and cultural studies, and present them with new media and technology. I usually create multimedia interactive artworks that are virtual, physical, or hybrid by mixing traditional and emerging forms. With an interdisciplinary background and diverse experience, I choose different perspectives to observe, sense, and experience every moment. I use dialectics to discover the eternal kindness, beauty, and truth in existence through impermanence and antithesis, and how they are intertwined.



​​I have always drawn inspiration from theatrical literature, including Shakespeare's tragedies, musicals, and the rich traditions of both Western and Eastern philosophy, seeking to connect these profound works to my own life. I am fascinated by uncovering hidden values and exploring the essence of objects and ideas to better understand the nature of existence—what I believe is, ultimately, the nature of art. At this moment, for me, the essence of art and the meaning of life are almost the same.

​

Currently, I am developing a series of code-driven artwork, with a particular focus on data visualization and responsive experiences. The purpose of my work is to evoke a sense of self-awareness in the audience, encouraging reflection on their identity within the digital age and fostering a deeper understanding of what it means to exist as a natural being.
