Claudine Chen

Claudine Chen works in video, interactive media, and sculpture at the intersection of art, science, hardware and software. Long-time engaged in community building, her favorite themes are equity, empathy, and human connection in the presence of systems. Claudine participated in the Pollinator pilot with an invite from Processing Foundation and shared this about her experience: “As the session continued, I understood finally what you’ve built - because to take up space doesn’t come naturally for me, and the other listeners picked up what I said and held it with care. It definitely was magic.” @mingness @processingorg

💥💥💥The first day of events at The Complex (Friday 6th September @ 21:30) concludes with ‘fanvid: a mixtape’ curated by Alice Quinn Banville. 💥💥💥 🔥🔥🔥fanvid is an exciting new platform for artists to screen their work and this screening comprises a selection of eight works from over a hundred films that have screened with fanvid since its inception in 2022. A DIY film club with a monthly open call, fanvid screens moving image work of all kinds: short films, TikToks, phone videos, archive footage and everything in between.

Nature paints itself.

All the disposable packaging from two weeks of groceries, shredded and woven. Oat milk tetrapaks, spinach bags, mushroom punnets.

I'm convinced the landscaper at Grangegorman is an artist at heart.

I love a good reflection collage.
