Curator Jims Lam explains that Zheng’s connection to Moore is “more conceptual than stylistic”. Last year, Zheng created a bamboo garden in Somerset House in London, as part of his conceptual art project, . His bamboo drawings are sketches from that show, made on a daily basis for its entire duration — a practice that resonates with Moore’s routine sketching of bones, pebbles and twigs accumulated in his Hertfordshire studio. Many of Moore’s signature sculptures — different iterations of the reclining nude, for example — began their lives as a drawing of a random object in which the artist saw more than what meets the non-artistic eye.
