Bio

In CHEN Mo’s creative process, he often treats himself and others as a fictionalised concept of “individual”. In “de-civilisation” and “de-materialisation”, different conditions and individuals are unitised and databased. So that experiments can be carried out on the relationship between the “individual and the whole”, and the results can be expressed in graphic and realistic arguments. In this pictorial visual space, he treats human beings, matter, nature, time and space as local data conditions for a grand experiment on the ‘whole’. He interprets the relationship between “time and space” from a perspective that removes limitations, attempting to describe an “invisible violence” nurtured in space and time. Against this grand worldview, his work is no longer constrained by the medium and is ultimately free in its loss of freedom.
