【About ZENZERO Studio】
ZENZERO 為意大利文，解作「薑」。事源有個新相識意大利朋友話「you have certain kind of spicy, not as chilly, more of a ginger」，所以就有了用「ZENZERO」作Studio名字的念頭。
ZENZERO，亦可分拆成「ZEN」和「ZERO」。「以藝入道」是修為。每次做一個項目都由零開始，同時提醒自己每次完結一個項目都要記得歸零。做事謹記要不慌不忙和不慍不火，學會說「不」的藝術。
希望本工作室作品可帶給受眾耳目一新的體驗，甜、酸、苦，和「薑」一般驅寒的辣。

Star & Dust is inspired by a beautiful saying of “we all are made of stardust”, the remnants of stars and massive explosions in galaxies, representing the multitude of potential and rhythms that we humans possess. To echo the idea, Star & Dust Collective is a hub of multi-disciplinary arts practitioners who share the same vision to make the world a better place through art and creativity. The creation of a masterpiece not only requires pioneering ideas but also collective effort. A generation who understands the value of art and culture as the key to a radiant future, we seek to liberate the minds of the masses through artistic creations, hoping to make dreams a reality. Aesthetics matter for all people. Art does not provide one with an answer but an experience, a context, a place to think, to spur thinking, and encourage engagement, acceptance and action.
「一與異」意指人對事件作比較所得的結論，不是同一，就是相異；而藝術創作各有偏執，恰恰是其體現。取名為一與異作邦，旨在集結不同界別的藝術工作者，一同大放異采。「人類源自星塵」，有着不同潛力與韻律。有說世界是個迴音谷，「念念不忘，必有迴響」。我們相信藝術、美學與教育讓世界更好。要成就一件作品，除了前瞻性的理念，還需要一群人的默默付出。藝術與文化正是達致美好未來的關鍵元素，我們這一代人深深明白這價值，因此我們希望藉着藝術創作去解放人們天馬行空的想像力，使夢想成真成為可能。美學修養對所有人都一樣重要。藝術為人提供的不是實質的答案，而是一種體驗，給予空間與脈絡，刺激人們延伸思考、鼓勵人們展開連結、互相包容、採取行動。
