Artist Bio
Wei Zhang（张薇）, born in Dalian, China, is a Chinese painting artist specializing in nature-themed artworks. Growing up in China, her artworks are deeply influenced by traditional Chinese aesthetics and philosophy. In 2024, she started working in New York and New Jersey in the United States, embarking on a new chapter of her artistic journey by blending Eastern traditions with contemporary perspectives.
Zhang’s works employ traditional Chinese Gongbi (工笔) and the Mogu (没骨) techniques, using silk and Xuan paper as mediums. Her paintings capture the vitality of nature, reflecting the profound relationship and delicate balance between humanity and the natural world. At the same time, her paintings create an Eastern poetic realm, inviting viewers to linger before them, transform into a creature—like a butterfly or a bird—and poetically wander through the fragile yet vibrant landscapes, finding inner peace and solace in the process.
