Tell Me About X

Tell Me About Self Trust & Intuitive Art

Christina (X) Giordano Season 1 Episode 29

In this episode X interviews Bonnie Zhou. Bonnie Zhou (she/her) is a multidisciplinary artist who examines the intersection of womanhood and diasporic Asian culture through calligraphy, dance, painting, glass, neon, and text. Originally from Toronto, Canada, she is now based in Brooklyn, New York.

A dancer as well as a painter, her figure paintings explore the relationship between body and emotion, inspired by her own experiences grappling with body image, sensuality, femininity and fetishization as an Asian woman. More recently, her calligraphic and textual work looks at the significance of ancestry, tradition, language, and the meaning of home in an immigrant family.
