Illustrator Spotlight: Zhenyi Zheng

A selection of work by Chinese illustrator and designer Zhenyi Zheng. Currently based in London, Zheng graduated from the Royal College of Art with a Masters in Visual Communication. Drawing from memory, observation and imagination, Zheng tells stories that explore the internal and external experiences of ordinary days. She loves to capture life details from unspoken objects, spaces and movements that are often ignored or unnoticed. Her drawings and illustrations exist in a place between reality and fiction, conveying a dreamy quality mixed with an objective tone and sober perspective.
