“You Are Doing Great” by Artist Jesse Zuo

A series of paintings from Chinese artist Jesse Zuo. Based in New York, Zuo earned her BFA and MFA from the School of Visual Arts. Her work delves into explorations of womanhood, the sensory experience of our bodies, and the tumultuous journey of emotions. Zuo adheres to the roots of traditional realism, yet injects modern twists that provide her audience with the freedom to draw their own interpretations about the times and places depicted. Her artistic expressions can be likened to a personal diary, a reflection of life as a young woman navigating the complexities of a foreign environment.
