Shengli Wen

I am a multidisciplinary visual artist passionate about design, community care, and environmental stewardship. I recently graduated with a B.S. in Interactive Media Arts from NYU’s Shanghai campus. I’ve worked across film, translation, computational design, movement practices and installation, and my current fixation is risograph printing. 


earth wax

An enormous greenhouse garden. Flocking endangered birds. Never-ending moldy walls... earth wax is an exploration of the artist's emotions surrounding climate change. Drawing inspiration from science fiction author Ursula K. Le Guin and ambient musician Brian Eno, earth wax is a visual poetry performance piece, swirling the viewer into a gentle yet chaotic psychedelic trance. Featuring 梁晓 Liang Xiao.
