Goddess of Democracy
is a Chinese-born New Zealand artist and sculptor. Chen was commissioned by the New Zealand government to create a 3-meter bronze statue of Edmund Hillary in 1991. In 2008, he created a 6.4 meters high replica of the Goddess of Democracy that currently stands in the Chinese University of Hong Kong. Chen created a large-scale relief representation of the Tiananmen massacre in 2009, on the 20th anniversary of the massacre. The "Tiananmen massacre" relief and the Goddess of Democracy replica were both displayed in Hong Kong during protests in 2010.
