b. 1974, Beijing, China; lives and works in Lantau Island, Hong Kong, China.

Zheng Bo's work explores the intersections between ecology, politics, and culture, with a particular focus on queer ecology and the relationships between humans and plants. Their practice encompasses a range of mediums, including photography, video, performance, and installation. Through this work, they seek to challenge anthropocentric attitudes towards nature and promote alternative ways of understanding and relating to the natural world. Zheng Bo's work is a powerful example of how art can be used to engage with urgent ecological and social issues and to challenge dominant cultural narratives about the relationship between humans and the natural world. Their work invites viewers to reconsider their own relationships to nature and to imagine alternative ways of living and relating to the world around us.
