Hua Chen: 2008 Olympic Dreams

Painting for Hua Chen is as important in his life as breathing. The act of putting a brush heavy with oil paint to canvas is how he makes a sacred connection with the world.

“I have always considered art to be spiritual. Painting is a process in which I practice my spirituality and express myself,”  Hua Chen said.

Recently, Chen was invited to be an official Olympic artist by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for the 2008 games. The organization was looking for artists from the host country of China, and after having seen Chen’s series of paintings featuring dancers, they thought he would be a natural fit.

“Hua Chen is renowned for capturing the beauty of motion that is unique to an Olympic athlete on his canvas.”
