Ching-Wen Cheng is a taiwanese artist and an engineer based in London, UK. She is passionate about AI, Computer Graphics, and AudioVisual. In the daytime, she works as a Creative Technologist, manipulating Machine-Learning techniques and WebGL development.
At night, she develops her own Generative Art and AudioVisual Art with code (Javascript / Webgl / Shader).

Her artworks are mostly based on some math and algorithms inspired by nature, like the forms of mountains, the patterns of stones, the flows of rivers, and the waves of oceans. She is fascinated with the generative algorithms behind the beautiful nature, and she keeps questioning what kind of role technology should play as co-creating with the existing beautiful system behind this real world, especially in a harmonic way?
