Wang Zheng: After the physical death of an organism, the matter of which it was composed does not disappear, but will be reborn in another way. According to the law of the conservation of matter, any material will exist eternally. Matter can even destroy antimatter. Even if it is reduced to ashes, it will produce heat and photons, another expression of its existence. I push myself as a force of physical transformation, collecting bodies of dead animals and plants, and then after changing their forms and morphology through my imagination, allowing them to be reborn. On the other hand, I also employ some non-natural objects that can never die, such as a piece of furniture or paintings. I give them a new form after their "death" in my imagination. The whole process of thinking and the implementation fascinates me, as I felt like the hand of God acting upon these objects.
