Yuchen Liu

Yuchen Liu (b. 2000) is a Chinese practice-led artist-researcher working across painting, installation, moving image and participatory projects. Her practice focuses on stone, attention, material presence and spiritual resonance, exploring how encounters with materials can shape embodied perception and create conditions for reflection, continuity and sensory engagement.

Drawing from personal experience, phenomenology and sustained processes of making, Liu approaches stone as an active participant within relational processes. Through repeated touch, responsive surfaces and spatial arrangement, she allows its physical qualities to shape the rhythm, structure and atmosphere of the work. Layered mineral textures and immersive settings explore the energy that emerges between body, matter and environment, inviting attentive looking and opening quiet ways of sensing care, memory and the vitality of the material world.
