CHEN WENWEI (MEW) 

BIO 

Mew is a visionary multidisciplinary artist whose work weaves lucid dreamscapes, cutting-edge technology, and the stark aesthetics of Brutalism into an immersive artistic language. With a background in graphic design and photography, as well as a transcontinental journey that has shaped her perspective, she navigates com-plex terrains where the subconscious converges with the concrete. 
In her recent series, Embracing the Inexplicable, Mew blends documentary photography with AI-driven image alteration, forging a dialogue between authenticity and illusion. Here, she engages with Brutalist forms—raw, decaying, uncanny—as catalysts for questioning power, representation, and the nature of truth. By challeng-ing where human creativity ends and machine intelligence begins, her work resonates with broader societal uncertainties about technological influence. 
Mew’s practice encourages introspection, urging viewers to reconsider authority, perception, and the essence of reality. Within these hybrid visions, she redefines the role of the artist, illuminating art’s capacity to tran-scend boundaries and awaken deeper understanding.
