Peng Jiheng (b. 1994, China. Lives and works in Auckland, New Zealand) is an artist working to unpack the complex nuances of Chinese identity through sculpture and digital artworks. Drawing references to the internet, computer gaming, stereotypical tropes of Chinese identity, Jiheng creates wry situations and contexts that test audience understandings of identity, memory, association and cultural understandings.
