Diane Zhou ELLIPSIS

Following a Chinese egg farmer who becomes a goddess when struck through the head by a piece of hail, Ellipsis is a contemporary fable by Brooklyn-based cartoonist Diane Zhou. The story and page layouts of this comic were inspired by the characters generated when Zhou used an Optical Character Recognition program to interpret family photos.

Diane Zhou lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. She is a painter and comic artist who revels in the "inauthentic" space of Diasporic Chinese/American culture using cuteness, disgust, and broken language.
