Abstract/Contents

Abstract: This thesis, submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts, East Asian Studies, examines the painting practice of contemporary multi-media artist, Zheng Chongbin (b. 1961). This study focuses on four other theoretical perspectives that Zheng has variously adapted, reconfigured, retranslated or reoriented to better suit the materiality of his chosen media, the processes of his artistic production, and the expressive, perceptual and intellectual directions of his interests. These include treatises by historical Chinese artists and critics, Shitao and Xie He; the spatial phenomenology incorporated in the architectural paintings of the seventeenth-century Dutch painter, Pieter Saenredam (1597-1665), and the combination of fractal pattern theory with ecological and New Materialism understandings.
