Shenshen Zheng is an emerging artist who has been living on Kaurna land for over 16 years. As a Chinese-Australian artist, Shenzhen finds inspiration from her roots and adopted home. Shenshen’s art is a reflection of the intricate dance between two worlds, a fusion of ancient tradition and contemporary influences. She explores the interconnectedness of culture, identity and belonging, and celebrates diversity through drawing, painting and installation.
Shenshen’s practice explores materiality. By using recycled and natural materials, such as cardboard, found every-day objects, plants and dirt, Shenshen investigates the complex relationship between humans and the natural environment.
