About me
Info
  1. Tianyi is always in either a second-hand shop or on second-hand sale apps where she encounters found objects, images and footage (and she never feels bored). Her love for used/ collected/ found objects originates from, instead of nostalgia, a haunted feeling experienced in contemporary days as the past has not been shed away while our world keeps moving, or in fact it can never be...

Trashscape Playground


Trashscape Playground
2025
Performance, found objects, Live stream projection, TouchDesigner and Arduino.
Site-specific at CRASH, Hong Kong.
Performers: Tianyi Zheng and Te Petchara (As RACCOONS Studio)

Trashscape Playground was developed and presented by RACCOON Studio during the residency at CRASH, Hong Kong. The project brought together installation, live cinema, and interactive media to examine the strange emotional lives of discarded objects—especially toys—collected by artist Tianyi Zheng over several years while moving between Rotterdam, Hong Kong, and other project sites. The residency culminated in an open studio, a live cinema performance, and a public sharing session with local artists.

Made possible with a financial contribution from CBK Rotterdam.
