1980, Born in Beijing, China
Chen Man made a huge impact when she started shooting the covers for the Chinese « Vision » Magazine. As her work hit the Streets it was met with surprise and awe. People were not only blown away by the amazing photographic images combined seamlessly with computerized 3-D rendering, but also by the fact the artist herself is a Beijing born girl in her twenties.
Chenman’s work is a combination of her skill with a camera, and her technical wizardry with a computer. She does all of her post-production image work herself, from retouching with Photoshop, to 3-D rendering with 3D Max. She has an extremely strong aesthetic eye that brings out the best of her models, and consequently shoots for the Chinese make up artist Tony Li, and various celebrities from China and Hong-Kong.
She is a regular contributor to the Chinese publications of Vogue, Elle, Bazaar, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, Official, Esquire and ilook.
Her work has been featured in the french publication Preference, the New York Magazine Unlimited, as well as the British magazine Nylon and Sport & Street.
