Wenxin ZHANG
张文心
ZHANG Wenxin(b. 1989) now lives and works in Hangzhou. She received her bachelor's degree in landscape architecture from Jinan University (2010) and her master's degree in fine art from California College of the Arts (2013). Zhang sees herself as a terrain builder. She works not to construct landscapes and wonders, but to depict human and non-human minds in the form of mixed media. She uses images, installations, writing, and soundscapes as tools to create process-oriented perceptual experiences, and often uses her work to guide the viewer to fall off the plane of the everyday and enter into a contemplation on time and the transcendent in a liminal space-time.
