SERENE CHAN
Serene Chan is a Chinese-Canadian creative and an expert daydreamer, who utilizes her passion in storytelling to produce digital and traditional imagery that provokes child-like wonder and captures nostalgia. Her work draws on her interest in mental health, East Asian history and mythology, and all things fantasy. She has worked as a freelance traditional painter and digital illustrator for 7 years, supporting other independent musicians, writers, and artists. She strives to create awareness in the beauty of Asian cultures and otherwise marginalized communities. Alongside her art, Serene's versatile background includes academic education in business and years of entrepreneurial experience exemplified in three of a start-up businesses. When she's not painting, you can find Serene working with her hands — sewing, making resin crafts, and thrift flipping. She was featured in the Perimeter Project.Â
