Kathy Hong Zhou

Kathy Hong Zhou was born in Chongqing, China. Her soft sculpture _BananaSkin_ made of Italian leather has shown internationally, and Zhou is reorganized as _Bananatomy_ on Instagram.
She has showcased her work globally in Canada, the United States, Italy, and China. Her interdisciplinary approach to art encompasses various forms, including drawing, painting, animation, illustration, graphic design, and user experience design. In her work, Ban Anatomy employs craft materials and techniques to question the concept of "taste" as a form of learned stratification that under mines individual identity and the worth of personal expression. She is a firm believer in the power of humor as a tool for awakening the unconscious and sparking meaningful dialogue around oppressive attitudes, practices, and boundaries that are deeply ingrained in our everyday lives.
