Lives and works Melbourne, Australia

Joy Zhou is a trans-disciplinary artist and design practitioner based in naarm/melbourne. Their practice generates from embodied experiences and communicates complex intersectional relations. Expanding from their background in interior design, Joy works with immediate situations, including sonic, graphic, performative, spatial and socially-engaged practices. They often interrogate norms with queering gestures and aim to amplify unnoticed existence in everyday life. These gestures unfold as encounters and events, that draw upon the people, their interrelation with space, and the overlapping contexts.
