when: 08 August 2024 - 14 September 2024 | venue: Rochfort Gallery | cost: Free | address: 317 Pacific Highway, North Sydney NSW 2060Renowned sculptor Chen Yanyin was born in Shanghai and is the creator of several urban sculptures in the city, including the 'People's Heroes Monument' on the Bund, the 'Tree of Life' in the Pudong Free Trade Zone, and the 'Broadcast Gymnastics' on Kongjiang Road.
Born in the late 1950s, Yanyin's works reflect her personal perspective of the era. From highly realistic sculptures to abstract expressions, her works resemble the gradually fading memories of the era and the childhood and youth memories of Chen as an individual in the tide of the times. Throughout her career, Chen has actively engaged in professional public art creation and also participated in various contemporary art exhibitions and activities both domestically and abroad.
Her works have been exhibited in Copenhagen, Denmark (1996), Bonn, Germany (1998), Kassel, Germany (1998), Vancouver (1999), Singapore (2000), and the 3rd Shanghai Biennale (2000).
