The performance and video artist Zhou Tao graduated from the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts in 2006. His subtle and humorous videos record interactions between people, things, and situations, touching on questions about the multiple trajectories of reality. Zhou has worked primarily in performance and video. Zhou’s humorous and unscripted videos evoke the spontaneous feeling of documentary works, but they are in fact rehearsed and costumed assemblies of everyday activity.
