Zhou Yuyue holds a Bachelor's degree from the Department of Sculpture at the China Academy of Art and a Master's degree from Chelsea College of Arts, University of the Arts London. Specializing in contemporary painting and installation art, he currently works and resides in Hangzhou. His practice merges a distinctive personal perspective with unique artistic language, translating the unknowable hidden dialogues between self and the external world into absurd, surreal fragments of the everyday - evoking whispers or a surreal paradise.
In recent years, Zhou's creative focus has centered on self-identity exploration. Through self-perception in daily life and metaphorical use of mundane objects, he articulates personal emotions and existential states, particularly examining the manifestation of personal identity and gender within social constructs. Dreams, childhood memories, and self-portraiture form the core of his artistic practice. By incorporating fluid gender perception and intertwined emotional states into his work, he creates "ambiguous figures" within pictorial spaces. These fragments of daily existence serve as portals for the artist to examine inner emotions. Zhou's indistinct yet highly personal experiences enable him to construct tension-filled surreal scenarios, where illusory realities reflect in mirrored surfaces, projecting ever-shifting inner worlds while offering viewers fresh perspectives and rich sensory experiences. Since 2022, Zhou Yuyue's works have been exhibited at numerous prestigious venues including Yulangtang Gallery (Beijing), Hiart Space (Beijing), H Gallery (Shanghai), and Haipai Art Museum (Shanghai).
