Olivia Chen is a Taiwan-born artist and graphic designer whose work is deeply rooted in memory, identity, and the quiet beauty of rural life. Raised in the Taiwanese countryside, she moved to the United States at just 16 years old-an experience that shaped her perspective and continues to influence her creative voice. Trained at Pratt Institute in New York City, Olivia studied graphic design and built a successful career spanning over 15 years in the industry. Alongside her design education, she explored oil painting, a practice that began as a passion and gradually became an essential part of her artistic life. Since the birth of her first child, Olivia has returned to painting with renewed focus and purpose. Drawn especially to portraiture, her work reflects intimate moments and personal stories inspired by her childhood in rural Taiwan-capturing emotion, nostalgia, and the subtle strength found in everyday life. Through each brushstroke, Olivia invites viewers into a world shaped by distance, remembrance, and the enduring connection to where she began.
