Xian Zheng uses her original "bird's eye view + multi-perspective" drawing method to draw and document the space of everyday life, such as traditional villages, artists' studios, exhibition situations, and different public and private spaces. From her refined drawings, people could rediscover familiar but new content hidden and ignored by daily trivial matters with a brand-new perspective.
Her multi-perspective drawing method is inspired by the Linear Perspective in the Renaissance and the Scattered Perspective of Chinese landscape paintings from the Song Dynasty, combined with Cézanne's Binocular Vision and Picasso's deconstructed perspective. Through the long drawing process of pencil on paper, she is like a detective, re-seeing many spatial details that were ignored in daily routine from a new perspective.
Xian Zheng's art works have been exhibited at Parallel Vienna, Ars Electronica Festival, afo architekturforum oberösterreich, Hipp-Halle Gmunden, and so on. Her works are included in the Upper Austria Kunstsammlung, Energie AG Upper Austria, and local government and private collections in Austria and Germany. She has won the Linz Kunstförderstipendium 2023 (Linz AG-Ateliers), Arbertstipendium OÖ 2023, Klemens Brosch Preis 2021 and other awards in recent years.
