Zhou Xinyu, Born in 1997 in Lanxi, Zhejiang, now living and working in Hangzhou. Graduated from the Animation Department of China Academy of Art with a bachelor’s degree in 2019. She is currently studying a master’s degree in the third studio of the Printmaking Department of the Chinese Academy of Arts. Zhou Xinyu’s early art practice was mediated by animation and digital painting. The animated work Zhou, which she independently directed and produced, was selected by the Paris International Animation Film Festival, Brazil International Animation Film Festival. Recently, Zhou Xinyu prefers to use comprehensive materials as the main medium in her works. Zhou Xinyu’s creation revolves around personal experience and public events, but she does not translate these directly into pictures, but creates from the emotions derived therein. She draws inspiration from distorted images, light and shadow fragments, and focusses on the fragility of real life and feeting surroundings. Figures in her works often refect a strong sense of alienation from the real world. Her stagnant emotions are intertwined with calm gaze. She uses painting as a means of asking questions about the real world.

**Zhou Xin Yu** (b. 1997, Lanxi, Zhejiang) is a Chinese artist currently living and working in Hangzhou. She graduated with a master’s degree from the Printmaking Department of the China Academy of Art in 2022. While her earlier practice centred on animation and digital painting, her recent focus has shifted towards mixed-media painting. Her work is rooted in personal experience and a sense of public time; rather than translating these experiences literally, she draws out the emotions that arise from them and allows those feelings to drive the creative process.
**Representative works** (from the structured archive) include:
- *Reading* (2021), acrylic, oil pastel, and pastel on paper mounted on board
- *Crowd* (2025), oil pastel, acrylic, pencil, and pastel on board
- *Relics, and Other Things* (2025), oil pastel, acrylic, pencil, and paint marker on board
- *Clutching the Thread Called Time* (2025), oil pastel, acrylic, and pencil on board
- *Gazing, Lingering* (2025), oil pastel, acrylic, pencil, and pastel on board
- *In an Instant* (2025), oil pastel, pencil, and acrylic on board
- *Drizzle, and Lingering Echoes* (2025), oil pastel, pencil, and acrylic on board
- *Sometimes, I Look Back at the Chaos* (2025), oil pastel, acrylic, iron oxide, and pencil on board
- *Through Many Days* (2025), oil pastel, pencil, and acrylic on board
- Several *Portrait* works from 2021 (No.01–03), acrylic, oil pastel, and pastel on board
**Creative style**: Her visual language sits at the intersection of figurative art, a cartoon-inflected sensibility, experimentation, and an evocative use of imagery. She works across animation, oil painting, printmaking, and mixed media, often combining materials such as oil pastel, acrylic, pencil, pastel, iron oxide, and paint markers on board. Thematically, her work engages with the human figure, urban landscapes, feminism, emotion, dream states, social commentary, nature and ecology, memory and time, identity, and the body. The resulting pieces carry a dreamlike, introspective atmosphere, where personal memory and fleeting emotional states are rendered through layered, tactile surfaces.
