Project
Ecosensibility Exercises
A series of six guided, embodied exercises by Zheng Bo that invite participants to move beyond a human-centered view of the world and connect with other living things, especially plants. They include Collecting Tree Qi, Drinking Sun Exercise, Drawing Weeds Practice and Sacred Grove Ritual; some are the artist's own, and others draw on practices from other cultures. The series was presented in 2021 in his exhibition Wanwu Council at Gropius Bau, Berlin, and Zheng Bo is among the artists in Actions for the Earth: Art, Care & Ecology at La Galería, UC Merced (2025).
