Heng-Chang E. Chen

Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain

From time to time, Heng-Chang considers himself as a scientist as well as an artist.

Duration his studying, he has gone through the complete scientific training; however, he, all the time, can not ease such desire inside his mind to make the life and the whole world, if it is possible, more colourful. Due to this belief, Heng-Chang has begun to build up his art career as en emerging artist since 2012. Up to date, he has participated international Art showcases and holds his personal exhibitions. Moreover, he has published his artworks in both local newspaper and the international journal as the cover. He is inspired to use watercolour and pastel to record and represent not only science (scientific illustration and fantasy), but also what he sees in the daily life, including landscapes, figurative as well as architecture/urban. Nowadays, he still holds this firm belief on and keep building up the milieux containing science and art as his own career.
