Liang Hsuan Chen
Now lives and works in Taipei / Tainan
Chen Liang-Hsuan's video installations create a state of temporal disorientation in the exhibition space, restructuring the relationships between image, sound, and body until the hidden orders and fractures of everyday life become perceptible. Working from sustained, close attention to particular people and places, she draws out urban experiences and private memories that rarely surface on their own — allowing buried connections and local structures to gradually take form, and finding their way into the lived experience of each viewer as something newly their own.
