Tianming Zhou
Tianming Zhou (Alaric) works with lens-based media, sound, and installation to explore the in-between of physical and conceptual landscapes. His practice revolves around places, ecological and infrastructural collapse, and the politics of image-making. Coming from a non-fiction background, he approaches his creative process as that of a collector and translator, grounded in fieldwork, interdisciplinary research, and cross-media presentation. His recent works engage with analog film materiality, photochemistry, and cameraless practices to reorient non-conforming sites through site-specific expanded cinema/photography installations.
