Bio
Li Chen (b. 1985, Israel) is an interdisciplinary artist working across sculpture, photography, video, and installation. A graduate of Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design (2013) in Ceramics & Glass Design, Chen's work engages with themes of gender, identity, memory, and time. Using materials such as glass, fabric, plexiglass, iron, wood, and polymer plaster, Chen’s pieces invite reflection on the fluid nature of identity, the passage of time, and the ways in which memory shapes our understanding of self. Her approach blends traditional and contemporary methods, exploring the relationship between material, form, and meaning.
