Chen Yu-Kai’s new works draw from his surfing experience, where the body fully engages with waves, wind, sunlight, and the ocean’s breath.

Natural phenomena such as spray, mist, and tides embody the uncontrollable forces of nature that fascinate the artist. Captivated by this unpredictability, he develops his practice around an unknown energy.

Through free, intuitive, and dynamic brushstrokes, Chen responds to nature’s impermanence, translating sensations of wind, waves, snow, valleys, plains, and sunlight into vivid, ever-changing landscapes.
