Muxingye Chen is a Chinese new media artist currently based in Rotterdam, whose work critically reflects on the impact of digital art on cultural identity and physical nomadism. His artistic practice seeks to explore the intersection of technology, art, and cultural traditions.


My artistic practice involves an expansive exploration that integrates various artistic mediums, including experimental film, computer-generated imagery, 3D scanning/modeling, field recording, and performance. This interdisciplinary approach is aimed at creating immersive experiences that deeply engage with objects, body, time, and space, eliciting both intellectual and emotional responses from the audience. I approach my artistic expression through two significant modes: individual practice and collaborative work. Both are pivotal in my creative process, aiding me in delving into philosophical and research based dimensions of my practice. Additionally, my active participation in art and cultural events plays a crucial role in presenting my artistic outcomes to the public. I engage in diverse forms of presentation such as video installations, audio-visual performances, experimental film screenings, and workshops within contemporary art spaces, art events, and cultural centers.
