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.
Me too movement in China is different than the me too movement in North America. It’s less about sexual assault and harassment. It’s more about how people could freely express themselves in a repressive state. The obstacles are state machinery and censorship. People have been arrested by protesting the state powers through this movement. It takes me too out of the Hollywood making the movement about more than just women’s autonomy. Etc.
