Chen Zhou

Chen Zhou mainly works in video installation and painting. His earlier works fall into a certain seclusion and despair, referring to the authority of the system, to different kinds of relationships, and to the anxieties of our times. They are often concerned with abusive external forces interacting aggressively with the individual, and try to expand the understanding of the strategies hidden behind the media and the organs of power. More recently, Chen Zhou has become accustomed to catching seemingly insignificant fragments based on moments in daily life, taking these broken fragments from his subconscious and combining them into coherent thoughts with the frequent use of moments of silence, as a means to humorously question his own identity as a contemporary artist and the contemporary art itself.
