Josh Chen 陈乔斯


Qiaosi (Josh) Chen (b. 1999, Fuzhou, China) is a New York-based artist working across video, installation, photography, and performance. Using objects, images, and the body, he constructs a fragmented, non-linear visual language shaped by memory, metaphor, and sensation. His works unfold as quiet inquiries, revealing brief clarity within ambiguity—like signals emerging through static. With a background in engineering and design, Chen moves between science and mysticism, logic and emotion, control and chance. His practice is intuitive and open-ended, grounded in peripheral experiences that resist naming yet slowly take form through material and experience.

This installation traces the connection between my inner world and the external environment. Angel numbers like 11:11 and 2:22 are collected as spontaneous blessings and fragments of daily life. Intuitively following these appearances, I wove them into a loose system—an accumulation of personal impulses and fragile moments. By transforming these private moments into tangible form, the work weaves them into a collective diary—where fragments of personal experience dissolve into a larger, shared consciousness.
