Zhou Xinyu (b. 1997, Zhejiang, China; based in Hangzhou, China). Zhou Xinyu's early art practice was mediated by animation and digital painting. Recently, she prefers to use comprehensive materials as the main medium in her works. Zhou's creation revolves around personal experience and public events. She draws inspiration from distorted images, light and shadow fragments, and focuses on the fragility of real life and fleeting surroundings. Her stagnant emotions are intertwined with a calm gaze, reflecting a strong sense of alienation from the real world.
