Zheng Mengqiang’s creations are mostly based on personal growth stories, relying on and focussing on the various emotions he has experienced and precipitated, and searching for creative inspiration from memories and dreams. In terms of the composition of the picture, he will draw on some elements in film and photography technology to refine (such as lens composition, character image modelling and light layout, etc.), and then use the structure, reorganisation, symbolism and other methods of the image to present a solidification moment with a sense of sculpture, and finally rebuild his ideal. ’S picture situation. In terms of the language of painting, he is used to using geometric figurative modelling to filter and condense the images of life left in the process of growth. The cold coast of his hometown, the long highway, the blue moonlight, pink reefs and hugging couples, migratory relatives, etc. have all become the objects repeatedly expressed in his works. And the alienation and intimacy, sadness and pleasure, hardness and softness... These contradictions and impacts are the core of ideas he really wants to express in his works.

 

Zheng Mengqiang was born in Fujian in 1987. He graduated from the Oil Painting Department of Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts in 2011; and now lives and works in Beijing.
