Chunbo Zhang

Born and raised in Shenyang, China, Chunbo Zhang (Bo) is a painter and printmaker currently living in Chicago. In her words:

My current work reflects the anxiety I have experienced as a foreigner living in America and adapting to its culture. In examining this matter, I choose food as the subject because it is not only the essential in our daily life, but also an entry point for a foreigner to understand an unfamiliar culture.

In my existing paintings, I use realistic style and surrealistic approach juxtaposing Chinese antique porcelain wares with American food. The juxtaposition of two cultural references contrasts the differences between hard (raw) vs soft (cooked), inedible vs tasty, ancient vs modern, high vs low in a humorous way.
