Yuling Chen is a Chinese Canadian new media artist. She is specialized in making works about beauty, labour and racial tensions using media archives exploring histories of new media art. She was born in 1990 on the southern small island of China, Hainan Island, in the city of Danzhou.

ODSP, Jobs, Kennedy Centre

The recent news about Kennedy centre makes me think about how I went to New York every month last year and this year before June. I was trying to manage my health and money wisely and see if I could find a job. It has made me worry about all sorts of things and people on my way there and back. It turns out opening up your horizons doesn’t come easy. I have also met many people in the hostels who looked like they are young and looking for a job. I wrote the New York Times letter and put it on my LinkedIn profile to see if I could get a job there. But for now it has not turned out for me. I have to say being on odsp makes you anxious and think about a lot of things. I stayed at home for awhile and concentrate on finding myself a job here and finding design clients to no avail. Is economy really that bad?
