Mahyuddin Chan, or Din Chan (b. 1989, Singapore), is an interactive installation artist and art therapist. Using technology as his medium, his work engages not just the viewers' gaze, but also their senses and the physicality of their bodies. Through such interactivity, viewers are invited to be collaborators in the art-making process, creating a multi-faceted and inclusive vision together.

Din graduated with a MA in Art Therapy (2021) as a recipient of the Red Pencil Scholarship, and a BA (Hons) in Fine Arts, both from LASALLE College of the Arts. Din is also a STEAM educator.
