1984年出生于中国湖南,现工作和生活于上海市。他通过对中国传统医学类画谱的使用,异化了医书示意图的叙事空间。其作品不断重复“接触”和“触摸”的核心主题,但完全避免了线性的故事探索。他把原本的故事撕裂,以呈现关于身体和互动的陈述,唤起新的视觉体验。


Born in 1984 in Hunan, China, he presently resides and practices his artistry in Shanghai. His works exhibit a profound reconfiguration of narrative spatiality within the sources from medical textbooks, employing traditional Chinese medical illustrations as his canvas. Amidst his creations, a perpetual thematic undercurrent of "contact" and "touch" persists, yet avoiding the conventions of linear narrative exploration. In his deconstruction of the original narratives, Zhong unveils a compelling discourse on the corporeal and interpersonal, invoking a reimagined realm of visual contemplation.
