DAO Zao

Born in the 1990’s in the Guangdong (south of China), Zao Dao is one of the youngest Chinese avant-garde artist.

Illustrator virtuoso, her talent as a watercolourist is already well-known in China.

She began to publish her drawings on the internet in 2011. She has a very original style mixing some elements of traditional Chinese paintings with a graphic modernity.

Under her paintbrush, the characters that she brings to life can give the impression of a rebel and marginal teenager but her search for freedom remains her first token of creativity.
