梁绍基（1945年生于上海，现工作和生活于浙江天台）在中国美术学院师从万曼研究软雕塑。近28年来，潜心在艺术与生物学，装置与雕塑、新媒体、行为的临界点上进行探索，创造了以蚕的生命历程为媒介、以与自然互动为特征、以时间、生命为核心的“自然系列”。他的作品充满冥想、哲思和诗性，并成为虚透丝跡的内美。

For nearly 28 years, Liang has been indulged in the interdisciplinary creation in terms of art and biology, installation and sculpture, new media and textile.
