In this series, Chen masterfully weaves together elements of pseudo-historical aesthetics with contemporary pop symbolism. The dragons, floral motifs, and geometric patterns evoke a sense of nostalgia, yet they are presented in a manner that feels fresh and relevant. This juxtaposition creates a dynamic dialogue between the past and the present, urging the viewer to reflect on how cultural narratives evolve over time.
