Ping Zheng’s works on paper in oil stick feature elements of landscape, bold lines, and geometric shapes that at times suggest portions of the human form. She draws upon her experiences in nature and her own interiority, while working from her studio in the city, noting, "Living in New York, it is not so green, but a day of dawn and night is splendid, the color of sky is changing, city lights are everywhere at night and quite beautiful." Zheng was born in 1989 in Zhejiang, China and lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. She received and MFA in Painting from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2016 and a BFA in painting from the University College of London, Slade School of Fine Art in 2014. Her works are included in the collections of JP Morgan Chase Bank and the Cleveland Clinic Art Program, among others.
