Oil Painting
Artist Biography
Monique Zhang is a Richmond-based artist working with acrylic, oil, watercolour, and selected fabrics. Born in China, she immigrated to Canada in 2002 and identifies as a person of colour and a first-generation immigrant.
Her practice explores the boundaries between past and present, dream and wakefulness, childhood and adulthood, seeking to awaken dormant moments and reveal how they continue to shape her as an adult.
Monique Zhang’s Blue Cocoon paintings are currently featured at Lansdowne Skytrain Station in the No. 3 Road Art Columns, and will exhibit until January 31st, 2026. They capture early morning moments among family members that celebrate love, care and connection in the quiet rhythm of daily life in our diverse city. : https://www.richmond.ca/city-hall/news/2025/artcolumns05aug2025.htm
