Mavis Chen earned a BDES in Interdisciplinary Design at Nova Scotia College of Art and Design. She is now pursuing her minor in Jewellery and Metalsmith.
Mavis's work has been exhibited nationally. She won the Avondale Artist Village Pin Design Award (Halifax, NS) in 2021. Her works were included in the Camp! A Spectacle of Rings (Ottawa, ON) and the 2021 Snag Student Exhibition. Her collection of 'Window' has been juried into The GIFTED Show (Vancouver, BC). She is currently creating her commission of Avondale Artist Village Pin with the support of Impact Cultural Capital CIC.
Mavis finds with her interdisciplinary design background, she is able to look at Jewellery and Holloware from a different perspective, as she is always inspired by graphics and illustrations. In her work, she tries to find a balance between functional, aesthetic, and storytelling. As jewellery is a medium she uses to communicate with the world.
