Juror: Yuge Zhou

Yuge Zhou (pronounced: you-guh jou) is

a Chinese born, Chicago-based video artist

whose work addresses rootedness, longing

and transient encounters across constructed

or natural spaces – the sites of our shared

dreams.

Yuge has exhibited nationally and internationally in

prominent art and public venues. Her work has been

featured in the New York Magazine, Hyperallergic

and The Atlantic, and recently acquired by the

Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago

and the Carl & Marilynn Thoma Foundation. Yuge

holds a MFA from the School of the Art Institute

of Chicago as well as a Master of Science from

Syracuse University.

In addition to her art practice, she also directs and

curates the 3300-square foot 150 Media Stream, a

uniquely-structured public digital art installation in

Chicago. In this capacity, she has worked with over

fifty media artists and cultural institutions to create

innovative programming each month that engages a

cross section of diverse communities.
