Zai Tang is an artist, composer and sound designer based in Singapore. Drawing influence from acoustic ecology, phenomenology and electronic & experimental music, his practice is built upon a belief that listening is an invaluable means of attuning to and forming deeper relationships with the worlds we inhabit.

In his solo work, he asks the question: What does it mean to listen to nature in a time of ecological crisis? In response, he experiments with the transformation and visualisation of wildlife field recordings from habitats under threat. The resulting material is used to create immersive listening experiences that imagine new ways to relate to more-than-human life.
