Ruxia Zheng
I moved from Xiamen, China to the Bay Area about 10 years ago. My early passion for photography was nurtured by private instructor Jianzhong Cai. I am deeply interested in how ordinary scenery transforms under different lighting conditions. Most of my photographs are taken around the Bay Area. Rather than merely capturing a landscape as it appears in the moment, I strive to evoke a dramatic expression of the photographers emotions. As a photographer, my goal is to make viewers aware of timeless elements,emphasizing the profound connection between people and nature.
I have a particular affinity for black and white photography. It allows my work to more clearly convey light, shadow, contrast, and composition. By removing the distraction of color, I aim to help viewers focus on the structure and form of the image. This approach highlights the details, textures, shapes, and shadows, enhancing the overall visual impact of my photographs.
