Lize Deng is a photographer and writer based in Auckland, New Zealand. His fine art photography operates at the intersection between the visual and performing arts, exploring the transfer of energy, from movement and sound to light.
As a writer, he is broadly interested in narrative journalism and microhistories. His "Sandringham Stories" project combines photography, historical research, and interviews to weave a narrative about the evolution of a community over 100 years and across six individuals.
His work has been exhibited in the MAGS Art Show, Auckland Libraries, Waitakere Arts Centre, and Auckland Council murals. In 2023, he was awarded first place in the Stills photography competition.
