Sihan (Tara) Chen is an independent curator and artist from Shenzhen, China, and currently based in Providence, Rhode Island. Their artistic practice merges Eastern and Western design aesthetics, while interrogating and rethinking conventional boundaries within furniture design. By creating domestic objects that engage and exert physical influence on the body, Sihan’s works become dynamic entities of their environments. As a curator, Sihan is dedicated to supporting emerging artists through an immersive approach. Their curatorial practice is rooted in narrative and psychological themes, crafting spaces that encourage a profound engagement between the viewer, the artwork, and the artist. Through consideration of both corporeal and incorporeal relationality of all involved, Sihan designs experiences that invite reflection and conversation.
