Chen’s work engages traditional Chinese philosophy and environmental issues, as seen in her collaborative work with cosmetics brand MAC, Love and Water. Chen combines traditional Chinese philosophy with fashion in a manner that is paradoxically both unified and self-contradictory. In “The Philosophy of Images,” Chen will discuss her longstanding engagement with traditional Chinese philosophy and fashion.
