Abstract
‘Wanwu I’ delves into Hong Kong-based artist Zheng Bo’s ongoing cultivation of deep kinships with the living beings we humans share our Earth with, plants in particular.
This publication explores the aesthetics, erotics, politics, and eco-sensibilities of plant life, but also the potentials of incorporating the inclusive, collaborative qualities of wanwu—which means “ten thousand things,” “myriad happenings,” or “more than human”—into both everyday life and art institutions.
