About Me
I am Yueling Chen, an environment artist from China.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Art and Technology from the China Academy of Art. Currently, I am pursuing my Master’s in Entertainment Arts & Engineering (Technical Art track) at the University of Utah, further developing my skills at the intersection of art and technology.
My creative practice spans 3D works, game prototypes, and new media art, with a focus on crafting diverse virtual worlds and weaving mysterious, atmospheric stories.
Mystery and cultural history are the central tones of my work. Growing up in a Tibetan area, I was deeply influenced by its ethnic traditions and religious environment. This experience revealed to me the vast humanistic history embedded in ancient and mysterious cultural expressions. It also sparked my lifelong curiosity to explore cultural roots and differences across the world, which continues to inspire the worlds I design and the stories I tell.
Through my portfolio, I aim to share immersive experiences that merge technical precision with artistic imagination, inviting audiences to step into unfamiliar yet meaningful realms.
