This year’s featured art for the Madison Night Market was created by local artist Xizhou Xie. She’s been a regular Madison Night Market vendor for the past few years, delighting attendees with her unique artistic style! Don’t miss her booth this summer – you'll find her near the Overture Center at each market.
Meet Xizhou Xie, an up-and-coming abstract artist with a passion for creating modern artwork. Xizhou’s work is characterized by vivid colors, bold textures, and a dynamic composition that engages the viewer’s eye.
Xizhou’s love for art began at a young age, when she went to an art elementary school that taught music and visual arts. As she grew older, she became more interested in abstract art, drawn to its ability to convey emotion and meaning through form and color.
Xizhou also creates functional home décor from her original paintings. With a positive tone and focus on creativity and individuality, Xizhou’s art will brighten up any living space. Her artwork can be viewed in person at the Xizhou Xie Art Gallery on the west side of Madison. You can also find her art online at https://xizhouxie.com/.
When she’s not in the studio, Xizhou enjoys tennis, cuddling with her cats, and traveling. She is always looking for ways to push the boundaries of her art.
