Chien-pei Chen was born mid-last century, coming from a family lineage of Taipei and Nanjing. He spent most adolescent years in Chiayi and thus thinks of himself to be from Chiayi. After graduating from the National Taiwan University of Arts, he traveled to Spain for further studies. After finishing his studies there, he returned to Taiwan and participated in the Venice biennale with his 1997 work Imprisoned Soul. In 1999, he opened up a new realm of video installation work with his piece Interface in the Silian (Four-Interconnected) Building of Huashan 1914 Creative Park. Since 2011, he has focused on creating the HOME‧LAND series. The creation and exhibition of 1987-1997, housed in Huashan 1914 Creative Park beginning in 2013 and his solo exhibition in the MOCA Studio are both different chapters of the HOME‧LAND series.
