Chan, Yung-Jen is an artist based in Taipei, Taiwan. Her works include sculpture, installation, photography, communal projects, publications and videos. She has a professional background in mould making and stage production, which reflects in her works. She uses the emotional and societal connotations of physical mass to investigate society and relationships between humans and their material constructions. She combines different forms and objects, to compare and discuss different definitions of selves, bodies, groups, society, and other elements from small to large. For artist herself, making an art work is like sampling people’s life in reality. Through her gently and humorous practice, she is showing the absurdity of human life by collecting and interacting with uncanny fragments.
