Why won't it go away? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/f9d3c706-226b-49c5-9096-c404eb7f645d/Chen_Next_Stop_+Freedom.JPG Lost in Translation Next Stop: Freedom, 48” x 18”, 2024. Bright orange birds soar above a crowded city, escaping the routines and restrictions of everyday life. Their wings embody the freedom I long for, carrying them somewhere beyond the ordinary. I wish I could fly away with them. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/9273c2b9-2b71-4785-9faf-c69596cd4d2c/Scarred+Memories.jpg Lost in Translation Scarred Memories, 21.6x14.4, 2025.

Caught mid-chew, my father appears far from the polished perfection of traditional portraiture. Vibrant colors and expressive brushstrokes reveal his playful, unguarded personality. Rather than idealizing him, I celebrate the imperfections that make him unmistakably himself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/a57ab60b-56d5-4299-a953-24553ae71fe0/Branded+Divide+.jpg Lost in Translation Branded Divide, 20x13.3, 2025.

A girl glows against a swirling, dreamlike world where reality and fantasy intertwine. Through vibrant colors and playful forms, I explore the exhilarating freedom of creating without boundaries, where imagination can take us anywhere. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/157710a5-b107-4c73-a324-301339918d86/Nowhere+to+Hide.jpg Lost in Translation Nowhere to Hide, 21.6x14.4, 2025. The place I feel most vulnerable in the world is my mom's car. There's no escape, nowhere to hide. The car traps me.

Vibrant acrylic colors, finger-painted dots, and crayon-like scribbles capture the untamed creativity of a child's imagination, while the blurred background reflects an innocent unawareness of the world beyond. I find myself longing for that kind of naivety, for a time before life became so complicated. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/32e12872-85ae-4a20-9f5d-b722ce1e36fa/Left+Behind.jpg Lost in Translation Left Behind, 19.5x19.7, 2025. Holga film captures sister leaving for college. Leaving me alone to fend for myself. I reach out to stop her, but it feels as though it's a dream, and I have no control. She leaves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/cd1e03c5-10c5-4cc1-9a71-62daeb9fc844/Two+Sides+of+a+Carrot.JPG Lost in Translation Two Sides of a Carrot, 36” x 24”, 2026. A girl and a goat share a carrot, experiencing the same moment in entirely different ways. Their contrasting expressions bring humor to an ordinary encounter, while the hazy backgrounds evoke a distant childhood memory. Interesting how perspective shapes even our simplest shared experiences. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/16d14e52-239f-4049-85a5-dc4045786ce5/Unbreakable+Image.jpg Lost in Translation Unbreakable Image, 15x21.7, 2025.

Vibrant waves flow between rigid cardboard buildings, bringing an unpredictable force into a familiar cityscape. A small red figure watches as the water moves around him. Through the contrast between fluidity and structure, I explore the quiet, unsettling nature of change. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/6c4700f1-31d5-4dc5-8157-ec89afc389cc/Neglected+Celebration+.jpg Lost in Translation Neglected Celebration, 32.6x12.8, 2025. Abandoned birthday cake left out. Trail camera captures foxes devouring it, leaving nothing behind. No one cares about the cake, who cares about a birthday? https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/ad886a10-17ce-4497-83a4-33c8c1b35408/Chen_Oceanic+Omen.GIF Lost in Translation Oceanic Omen, 16’’ x 32” x 18’’, 2025. A towering wave threatens to engulf a tiny red figure surrounded by the wreckage of a collapsing world. Through jagged forms, deep blues, and fragmented structures, I capture the feeling of being overwhelmed by forces beyond our control, caught between chaos and quiet resignation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/42a3a603-dc2d-4106-8f33-456d1f01f466/Proximate+Distance+.jpg Lost in Translation Proximate Distance, 28.4x43.8, 2025.

A broken ladder stretches toward a glowing window, promising an escape that can never be reached. Through distorted perspectives and frantic brushstrokes, I question our tendency to chase distant promises of happiness, only to discover that what we seek may have been an illusion all along. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/3ca822fe-5ac6-4cd8-b169-0b031540ea89/First+Embrace+.jpg Lost in Translation First Embrace, 14.2x15.6, 2025. Holga film captures the moment when mom accepts my embrace. When she starts to accept me. Tension is released, distance is closed, the start of our journey only begins. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/d7901aee-14d3-4f71-aa72-ddbe5bdcd709/Audrey_Chen%E5%BD%A9%E8%89%B2%E9%80%8F%E6%98%8E%E7%BA%B8%E4%BA%BA%E8%84%B8Mix-_Medium%E6%8E%92%E7%89%88.jpg Lost in Translation Equinox, 16” x 40”, 2026. A solitary figure rests between cool blues and vibrant bursts of pink, red, and gold. Translucent cellophane blooms like flower petals and butterfly wings, bringing warmth into an otherwise still, crystalline world. Through the contrast between stillness and movement, warmth and chill, I explore how the things we surround ourselves with can change us, how even the coldest parts of ourselves can slowly begin to feel warmth again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6a4d87535ea30465d0e51bf3/57353f4f-86c7-4e94-a85f-4b35aae1b851/Once+upon+a+time%E2%80%A6.jpg Lost in Translation Once upon a time…, 50.5x34, 2025. Digital camera captures me when I join my mom under a blanket. She reads a Chinese children's book. I feel 5, learning to love life again. We get a redo of my childhood. Tying up the loose ends, providing closure for me to move on.
