Qingyu(Levrice) Zhang is a multidisciplinary artist based in Baltimore, Maryland, and a BFA student in General Fine Arts at the Maryland Institute College of Art (2022–2026). Working across drawing, painting, sculpture, and installation, Zhang employs materials such as charcoal, ink, gouache, oil paint, clay, resin, and wood, alongside skills in photography, architectural design, and digital illustration.
Their practice explores the intersection of representation and abstraction, often beginning with observational drawings of figures, objects, and architectural spaces before transforming them into layered narratives of memory and change.
