Zhuoyu Zhang is a New York-based new media artist and researcher working across video installation, interactive systems, and physical computing. Her practice examines how digital infrastructures, including platform governance, predictive logic, and automated media, shape identity, perception, and affective labor. By translating invisible data processes into tangible encounters, her work questions how selfhood is produced, measured, and commodified within digital capitalism.

Zhang holds a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and is currently an MFA candidate in Design and Technology at Parsons School of Design. Her work has been exhibited and published internationally, including Grace Exhibition Space, Digital America, The Wrong Biennale, Electronic Currents at Gallery 130, and ACM TEI 2026, where her project The Idol was accepted to the Art & Performance track with an accompanying paper published in the ACM Digital Library. She also collaborated with the German Aerospace Center and KISD on Quantum Abacus, an interactive project bridging contemporary art, interaction design, and quantum science education, which was exhibited as part of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology 2025 program.
