Having participated in numerous international and domestic exhibitions, Chen Ke has worked in a variety of media, including painting, sculpture and fashion design.
When Chen Ke needed to select her major in the university, she read a book about Vincent Van Gogh.
As classical artworks of Chen Ke, almost every piece of work shows a little girl with a round nose, who is lost in depression, limited to herself, living in an unreal space, and seems to keep a distance from the human world.
With the full expression of the blank as well as the grain like porcelain painting, Chen Ke fully shows the opposition of the reality, which buries the audience in the waves of the sense of unknown sadness.
Like many young artists, Chen Ke takes her interest in various aspects - music, traveling, and reading are her favorites.
Just like the show in 2007 in Star Gallery, with that old-style furniture appealing to the deep memory of Chen Ke when in her childhood, Chen Ke starts to do her re-creation; with flow of the trace of colors and the casual position of the girls, she expressed her sense of belongingness and her deep feeling about herself.
In this book, she told her story from being a little girl[6] in a small city of Sichuan to becoming the most representative contemporary Chinese artist.
And her paintings have been included in both international and domestic books on art, including China - Facing Reality (2007), Avatars and Antiheroes: A Guide to Contemporary Chinese Artists (2008), and 19 Samples of Chinese Contemporary Female Artists (2008).
Her artworks also have been exhibited in many other galleries in London, Berlin, Vienna, Bangkok, Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing etc.
