Xuefei
Chen

Born in China in 1999, Chen Xuefei graduated from Nanjing University of the Arts in 2022 and is currently pursuing a Master's degree in Painting at Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan, Italy. In 2025, her work was selected among the top 100 artists of the Premio Arte contemporary art award.  
Chen's oil paintings demonstrate a keen sensitivity to everyday life. She excels at capturing easily overlooked subtle, traces of time on object surfaces, hazy fragments of memory—and transforming them into poetic imagery through delicate brushwork and nuanced color palettes. Her work blends realism with lyricism, achieving a delicate balance between materiality and spirituality, inviting viewers to rediscover the beauty and philosophy inherent in ordinary things.  
Currently, she continues to explore the expressive possibilities of oil painting, seeking to preserve ephemeral emotional vibrations and existential experiences on canvas.
