"Experiencing the world is a cognitive journey." -- Zheng Chongbin
How do artists think about space? That question animates a new two-part exhibition by Marin County-based artist Zheng Chongbin (b. 1961). In dialogue with the museum's transformation project, I Look for the Sky explores how the manipulation of light can profoundly change our perception of architectural space.
As an artist trained in classical Chinese figurative painting at the China Academy of Art who went on to study performance, installation, and conceptual art at the San Francisco Art Institute, Zheng brings a singular approach to contemporary art.
