AAPI Artist Spotlight: Derek Zheng

“Love is not found in grand gestures, but in the accumulation of small acts-the simple things one does everyday for oneself and for others.”
Derek Zheng is a finalist for the 2024 Open Call for Artist Banners. His work ‘Close-up’ is inspired by his parents, who are Fujianese immigrants and restaurant owners, and the daily labor to put food on the table.
