Wei Zhang

Wei Zhang (b. 1991, China) currently lives and works in Glasgow, Scotland. He is a filmmaker and visual artist working between moving images, performance, and installation. Zhang explores the hybridity, intersectionality, and transnationality of Queer theory by connecting it with post-colonial theory and classic Asian philosophy. He is also interested in the idea of Utopia and the future of humanity by thinking of transhumanism, the body, and technology. Fascinated by collage with various digitalized film footages, Zhang blends impure and discontinuous intermedial images to build up a surreal space where reproduction, bloodline, family, and kinship intertwine.
