Live art practitioner-researcher with a Doctorate in Performance Studies and art producer. Burong Zeng is deeply interested in the lived experience of invisible disability and its affect on the meaning-making and performance-making process, particularly for diaspora and neuroqueer artists. Zeng's recent performance explores how 'sticky' and viscous materials can disrupt binary thinking and broaden our perspective of embodiment, otherness, and nonhuman agency.

​

Zeng has exhibited and performed internationally, including Pratt Gallery (Manhattan), Power Station of Art (Shanghai), G12 Hub (Belgrade), Southbank Centre (London), The Yard (London), Bethnal Green Working Men’s Club (London), Raven Row (London), and Exeter Phoenix (Exeter). Besides, Zeng has published journal articles, short novels, and book chapters. Her co-authored book The Happening of Contemporary Performance (2016) and a series of interviews (2016-2019) with live artists and curators in Europe have been published in China.
