Ina Chen

Ina Chen is a LA-based Creative Technologist, Artist, and Educator who blends art, technology, and storytelling to explore speculative futures and ancestral pasts. In recent years, Ina integrated game art and installations into her storytelling techniques. Her diverse and multicultural background, which spans Architecture, Philosophy, Music, and History, profoundly shapes her artistic vision. Ina’s work deconstructs traditional storytelling by utilizing real-time technology to create films, hybrid documentaries, and live cinema performances that provoke critical conversations. By merging cultural and historical contexts with technology, she challenges conventional narratives, bringing untold stories to light and pushing the boundaries of the creative landscape to reveal new possibilities.

Ina has been a member of the New Museum’s New Inc incubator and a resident artist at Culture Hub LA and Supercollider cohort. She also teaches Fiction and Entertainment, a postgraduate program at the Southern California Institute of Architecture. Both her commercial and artistic practices have been featured on platforms like NOWNESS, HYPEBEAST, History Channel, Hulu, MTV, Coachella, Wired, ONX Studio, Slamdance, GamePlay Arts, Flux Festival, C-Lab and Art Basel.
