Michael Zheng, a conceptual and performance artist, was born and grew up in China. He studied computer science at Tsinghua University in China and worked in Silicon Valley for ten years as a software designer. Later he left his job to attend San Francisco Art Institute and at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. His work is influenced by his interest in Ch'an Buddhism's notion of intrinsic nature of all things. He is interested in bringing awareness to the spatial, historical and cultural characteristics of the context, or subject matter. Using interventionist thinking and a conceptual approach infused with sincerity, absurdity and humor, he creates situations that question established positions so that new perspectives can be experienced.  His works are characterized by a performative nature and are shown in the form of photographs, video, sculptural installations and site-specific interventions.
