Tianzhuo Chen depicts the absurd of our daily life invaded by celebrities and the universe of fashion and drugs, deploying a grotesque and kitsch colorful imaginary. His visual references are dominated by hip-hop, LGBT, the London rave scene, Japanese butoh and New-York voguing. Mixing various mediums, Tianzhuo’s works incorporate a number of religious symbols into iconographic elements borrowed from several urban subcultures which are shared by a global youth culture. The exponential installations might even transform a gallery into an Acid club.
