Leah Zhang / 张紫璇

Leah Zhang is a multi-media artist and image creator. With a background in film studies, she received her MFA at Rhode Island School of Design, RI, US in June 2021.

Leah’s work is a research practice around film and media studies. She is simultaneously concerned with the socio-historical implications of media as a means of communication, as well as the relationship between ecology and human media as a technological device for measuring, discovering, and recording nature. Through photography, film, and sound, her work engages socio-history and nature through multi-sensorial, surreal and affective transfigurations.

Leah currently lives and works in Shanghai, China.
