Kechen Qian is a moving image artist and filmmaker based in London and Shanghai. He holds an MA in Performance: Screen from Central Saint Martins. 

His work explores intangible experiences that manifest within everyday reality, such as unprovable memories, spiritual consciousness, and the fragility of time, tracing their spectral presence within non-fiction images through poetic visual language.

Working across digital and analogue film and installation, Kechen draws on personal and collective experiences through visual documentation, fragmented structures, repetition, and shifting temporalities. His practice often moves between observation and reconstruction,
using the temporal qualities of moving image to blur the boundaries between lived experience and imagination.
