Tianchan Chen

Tianchan Chen is considered as one of the most innovative and intellectually profound cross-media artists of this time. His artistic practice merges rigorous mathematics and programming techniques with an innovative visual art style, breaking down the barriers between traditional art and modern technology. His works assemble various media, blending mathematical aesthetics, programmed visuals, and interactive installations, blurring the boundaries between pure art and technological art. From machine learning algorithm-driven dynamic paintings to interactive installations based on programming logic, his works construct a unique bridge between experimental beauty and rationality. These works not only showcase his talent in the field of visual arts but also have attracted widespread attention in the tech-art world, creating an art experience space that is both realistic and fantastical for the audience.  

Tianchan Chen graduated from the Machine Learning program at the Schwarzman College of Computing at MIT, and his academic experiences at the Electronic Arts department of Alfred University, the Mathematics department of New York University, and the Mathematics department of the University of Wollongong, deepened his exploration of the intersection between art and mathematics. In August 2023, he successfully curated the "No Man's Land" artificial intelligence art exhibition at Beijing's 798 Art Zone and was named one of the most influential curators of the month by Artron.net. In the same year, his AI art works "The Prophet" and "INFINITUS" ranked first and ninth, respectively, on the list of the world's most influential AI artworks. Additionally, his AI water-based woodcut prints "Prehistory of the Future: Matter and Consciousness" was exhibited at the "Game Theory" Asian Games-themed exhibition at the Zhejiang Art Museum, receiving unanimous acclaim from both the public and academic circles.
