RENA CHEN
陈玄
Rena Chen, an artist, illustrator and gallery owner., currently resides in Shanghai, having previously lived in Canada and the United Kingdom.
She believes that her art originates from the harmonious fusion of personal spiritual energy and the essence of nature, where all things flow endlessly in perpetual motion, akin to the eternal dance between consciousness and the natural world. As seasons come and go, cycling through the eternal rhythm of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, life persists in its unceasing renewal.
陈玄是一位艺术家，插画师，画廊主理人，现居在上海，曾在加拿大和英国生活。她相信她的绘画源自于个人的精神力量与自然的交融，万物生生不息流转，如同意识与自然万物生于有，有生于无。
