Biography
Li Yuchen (LYCHEN) was born in Xinjiang, China, in 2001. Li is a cross-disciplinary artist and director whose practice spans experimental theatre, virtual production, digital art, and philosophy-based narrative.
Li’s artistic practice is rooted in an
interdisciplinary philosophical narrative that traverses digital visual
experimentation, painting, installation, moving image, experimental music, and
performance, extending into virtual reality and artificial intelligence.
Through cross-media experimentation, his work explores counter-archaeology and
ecological evolution. His creative approach is grounded in constructing visual
and perceptual systems that reflect upon the future, establishing dialogues
that interweave art, philosophy, and logic. Li is dedicated to articulating the
trinity between existence, life, and environment across multidimensional media.
Li’s works have been exhibited in various
cities and art institutions across China and the United Kingdom, including the
CAFA Art Museum, the Royal College of Art, and teamLab…
