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. When she was young she led a nomadic life moving from cities to cities, homes to homes and places to places. Thus, she had discovered her love in literature, obsession with identity, and eyes for design.

The things fall apart and other exhibitions at university of Toronto art museum for Toronto biennial of art creates a world of objectivities through sounds, textile and installation. One wanders the museum wondering about how much efforts being put in these shows of prolonged futurity. Inhabiting the works’ psychological disturbances, I have found it a poignant opinion piece on longevity and climate justice. The context of indigenous and Inuit culture has made the exhibition revel in the glory of exploitation. Can people be more humane?
