Nicole Zhang’s practice centres on genre painting and its potential to document and
respond to the complexities of everyday life. Zhang’s work engages with and references
the pictorial vernacular of modern and contemporary figurative painting. Through the
use of compositional strategies, patterning, recurring symbols and motifs, Zhang’s work
captures the familiarity and disruption in the rhythms and syncopations of her daily
liturgies..
