about
(邹佳韵)
Lucy Zou (邹佳韵) is a multidisciplinary artist working with sound, media, performance, and installation. She’s interested in play — how we interact with the world, and how small shifts in familiar systems can make everything feel a little strange. Her work often circles around translation, inheritance, and the blurry space between what we’re given and what we make our own, shaped in part by growing up as the only child of Chinese immigrants.
She recently graduated from the BFA program at the University of Ottawa, where she received the Louise Perry photography scholarship twice. She has apprenticed with Ryan Stec at Artengine and painter Martin Golland, and she works as a technical arts worker supporting production, post-production, installations, and artist-facing workflows in both artist-run and academic spaces.
Lucy is often thinking about sincerity, shared oddities, and whether pigeons know something we don’t. She works with sound, sculpture, and systems that invite a bit of strangeness. Her practice builds in layers — like sediment, or memory — occasionally interrupted by dramatic readings or unexpectedly emotional karaoke. She has exhibited at Gallery 115, including Pigeon S@$, a duo installation exploring abandonment, anthropocentrism, and the absurd.
