About
Chen Yongqun
was born in 1963
Most times I do not know the way a work would go and the expression it might be, but it gives me many possibilities to adopt the strange chance to reflect my own soul which forms in a special visual prospect. The world that I live in is an absurd reality and indetermination over truth, so too are the works open to all interpretative perspectives. Accidental chances are discovery for me to realize my world and ego in such a free way.
