SRC Artist Jeni Chen

Jeni Chen is an artist from Richmond, B.C. with experience creating public art installations and leading engaged community workshops. In 2022, she authored and illustrated her first children’s picture book, Emet’s Box (2022), a story that encourages self-discovery and finding one’s passion and an ode to her son. She grew up in Taiwan, where she loved going to the beach and swimming pools during the humid summer days. When it comes to her favourite stories, Jeni loves comics and manga, including many classics like Garfield, Dennis the Menace, and Henry, as well as, Dragon Ball-Z and City Hunter.

 Join Jeni as she reads her book Emet’s Box, shares her inspirations, writing and illustrating processes (show my sketchbook, manuscript drafts, dummy books) and does a live drawing demo/exercise. 60 min, on Zoom.
