Leah Ki Yi Zheng’s Personal I Ching

Artist Leah Ke Yi Zheng's exhibition "Change, I Ching (64 Paintings)" at the Renaissance Society in Chicago presents a series of oil and acrylic paintings on silk, each depicting one of the 64 hexagrams from the ancient Chinese divination text, the I Ching. The artist physically altered the gallery's architecture to control light and create a specific viewing rhythm, synthesizing materials and techniques from Chinese ink painting traditions with Western geometric abstraction and oil painting.

art leah ke yi zheng interview painting

Leah Ke Yi Zheng, a Chinese-born painter based in Chicago, is the subject of a feature interview discussing her first solo institutional exhibition at the Renaissance Society, on view through April 12. Zheng, who earned her MFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) in 2019, has developed a distinctive practice that moves beyond traditional canvas to Chinese silk and explores asymmetric forms. Her exhibition comprises 64 paintings rooted in the I Ching, the ancient Chinese text, featuring motifs of machine gears, haunting absent faces, and hexagrams. The show is designed in dialogue with the Renaissance Society's architecture, with modified windows and wall proportions to create a recursive, reflective experience.
