Wanwen Zhang

Trained in traditional silk painting and digital art, Zhang Wanwen (b.1994) currently lives and works as a multidisciplinary artist between Frankfurt am Main, Germany, and her hometown, Mount. Emei, in Szechuan province, China. Zhang's research demonstrates a continuous interest in domesticity, perception, and femininity to manifest curiosity in fandom and crafts. Her practice involves a multitude of spatial encounters and circumstances. Through nuanced gestures expressed in painting, drawing, calligraphy, animation, comic books, film, and sound, she reconstructs fragments and sequences nonlinearly with materials drawn from non-hierarchical sources. Zhang's work serves as a playground for an intersectional synesthesia experience. In her recent works, she examines the authority, accessibility, and authenticity of memories and the process of image-making in the era of simulacra. Thuy Tien and Wanwen have been collaborating since 2024.
