Zongze Chen works with design, code, and electronics. His practice is guided by a wish to understand humanity and the world as it exists. He believes technology can return lives to simplicity and harmony, rather than distance them from it.



I studied cognitive science and art. One trains me to break things apart, the other to see them whole. I move between the two — analysis and intuition, structure and vision.

Coding is my language for thought. Making objects is my way back to presence. Connecting them opens new spaces in between.

Sometimes, I make sculptures. Sometimes, I make nothing. They are pauses — quiet places where thought can consolidate its presence.
