The future is haunted by the unexamined past.  
Liwen Lian is a Hui-Chinese 回族 new media artist using moving image, installation and performance to examine overlooked stories and histories. Through autoethnographic and archival practices with emerging technology, they mix social commentary and surrealist visual language to create fictional realities. Their work explores hidden stories of migration, gender, and spirituality. Reflecting the tension and contridiction of existence in the increasingly globalised world.

They recently completed the Young Creatives Lab residency at SIGNAL Arts, supported by the City of Melbourne. Their work has shown at Melbourne Design Week, Next Wave, Mpavilion, MISCELLANIA, Bundoora Homestead, Blender Studio. Liwen is the founder of VERY VERY GOOD STUDIO, a graphic design and event production creative studio.


连丽雯是一名回族艺术家，运用影像、装置与行为艺术探寻未被看见的故事和历史。她从自身经历出发，用自我民族志的方法结合档案研究和数字科技艺术，创造出超现实的“平行世界”。 她的作品讨论移民、性别、科技与灵性在当代社会的关系。 在越来越全球化的世界里，在多元文化共存的机遇与矛盾中，个人在时代的洪流里何去何从？

近期完成了墨尔本市政府支持的SIGNAL艺术机构的青年创作实验室驻留项目，作品曾展出于墨尔本设计周、Next Wave、MPavilion、MISCELLANIA、Bundoora Homestead美术馆。丽雯在2025年底成立“非常非常好工作室”，在墨尔本地区做平面设计和活动策划工作。
