“纏”與“牽”這兩個字可以總括起各種不同的人際關係與情感，陳潔培用圖像的演譯記述著曾出現在她的過往經歷與夢幻中的纏與牽。
她表示，她的這系列作品的創作靈感來自她目睹一位友人的心碎過程，她隨後的力搏及她那自始至終對生命追求的激情。
使用繩或線相互間的糾纏與牽連，陳潔培用她的油畫描繪出沉澱在她內心的共鳴。她説她不是在尋覓一個解決方案，而只為要擁抱及頌讚纏與牽這兩種情況，及它們能把人們結為一體的現象。
陳潔培生於上海，一九六五年已移居美國，並取得加州州立大學美術碩士學位。她曾在聖荷西市立學院與加州大學柏克萊分校任教美術。她的作品曾在美國及美國以外地區的博物館及美術館舉辦多次個展與參加聯展，並被多家公共與私人機構購藏。

Tangles and Ties are all about the many dances in life. American-Chinese artist Mimi Chen Ting laid down on canvases the pictorial road maps of the tangles and ties of her past experiences, dreams and imaginations.
She said the ideas of this series began when she witnessed the progress of a friend’s heartbreak, her subsequent struggles and unyielding passion for life. The interactions of the cords and strings in her paintings have become metaphors to express many of her inner resonances. “I am not seeking for a resolution, only to embrace and honour the bonds that make us one.”
Born in Shanghai, Chen Ting moved to the United States in 1965. She has a Master’s Degree in Art from the California State University and has taught art at the San Jose City College and the University of California in Berkeley.
“I am like an irrepressible child, capable of boundless possibilities, when I enter my studio. I thrill at the process of making marks and I relish the meandering that my medium proffers, “ she stated.
Her works has been in numerous solo and group exhibitions in museum and galleries in the United States and abroad. Her paintings are in the collections of many public institutes and corporations such as Harwood Museum, International Miniature Museum of Contemporary Art, University of Phoenix, Stanford University Hospital, AT &T, Advance Micro Device, and Xerox Corporation.
