About Me

The paintings and digital works of Meng Zhou while simple and aesthetically beautiful reveal layers of nuance and complexity. At the heart of his work is an exploration of traditions of painting and style. Meng’s work attempts to merge classical Chinese painting with modern techniques and western styles. Many of Meng’s painterly styles aim to deconstruct classical modes of painting. Using a technique of dripping and dispersing ink across his image Meng gives a degree of autonomy to his medium while representing the malleability of his subject. Drawing stylistic pointers from the likes of Egon Schiele and Jenny Saville, Meng attempts to capture the fuidity of the human body and to convey a sense of the living – a sense of movement. Although much of his work seems fi゙gurative his subjects are always borne out of fiction. They are composites drawn from a combination of imagination, collected images and anatomical research. Free of any context and identity the subjects seem to be suggestions rather than narratives or portraits. This ambiguity resonates in the often enigmatic titles of his work.
