Hongfei Chen (Figo)



Figo's personal logo
Figo Chen is a London-based artist whose practice traces the invisible pressures that shape human emotion and behaviour. Currently studying MFA Communication at the Royal College of Art, he creates poetic installations and artist books that explore how people carry hidden feelings—especially within social structures that discourage softness and vulnerability.

Often working with air, wind, and objects of comfort like pillows, Figo builds quiet spaces that give form to what is usually unseen: internal tension, emotional fatigue, and the longing to rest. His works invite viewers to pause, lie down, and listen to what remains unspoken—revealing how even the gentlest materials can hold deep emotional weight.
