Hi, I'm Xiuzhuo Zhou from Southampton United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland

Xiuzhuo Zhouis a photographer and narrator of the inner world, whose work explores the subtle interplay between emotion, memory, and philosophical reflection. Originally from Hubei, China and now based in Southampton, UK, Zhou specializes in realistic photographic styles that capture the often-overlooked poetics of everyday life. His practice spans photography, installation, and new media, integrating technological approaches such as collage and AI-generated imagery to blur the boundaries between reality and imagination.
Zhou’s work centers on themes of identity, temporality, and existential inquiry—focusing on how individuals navigate and preserve a sense of self amid rapid societal change. Through precise documentation and quiet observation, he reveals moments of humor, introspection, and quiet beauty, inviting viewers to re-examine their inner states and find meaning within the ordinary.
