About the Artist
Connie Zheng is an interdisciplinary artist, writer and filmmaker. She draws heavily upon methods of assemblage and recontextualization. She is interested in the diverse manifestations of propaganda, the possibilities for expanding the language of climate apocalypse, and what a rhetorical alternative to “disaster porn” might look like.
This year’s Spring 2020 lecture series is curated by Prof. Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle and focuses on artists who deal with issues concerning the intersections of social justice, healing and politics of belonging.
Presented by the UC Berkeley Department of Art Practice
