GUO Cheng (b.1988 Beijing) is an artist currently living and working in Shanghai. Guo works predominantly in installation, integrating custom software and hardware, mixed media, and spatial intervention. His practice interrogates the material and ideological dimensions of technological systems, examining how infrastructures—from data centers to geological strata—mediate human experience across vastly different temporal scales and constitute complex ecological entanglements. His works employ a composed yet subtly absurdist tone to juxtapose grand temporal and spatial scales with mundane technological artifacts, making visible the often-invisible infrastructures that mediate contemporary life and exploring the symbiotic entanglements at the intersections where ecological and technological spheres overlap.
