周岩，生于北京，本科毕业于中央美术学院设计学院，研究生就读于芝加哥艺术学院，获艺术硕士。
周岩的创作来自于对个体与群体在共生状况下所形成的一系列适配痕迹的观察。如创新者如何调整技术以适应特定社会的经济条件与资源基础，而社会系统为配合精英决策层的技术创新而不断优化自身资源分配时，个体生命在系统振荡下的应对方式。并通过影像、装置、电子游戏及艺术家书等多元媒介，将这一系列长期的研究内容予以视觉和体验层面的投射。他参加的展览包括:

Zhou Yan (b. Beijing) received his BFA in Visual Communication from the School of Design, Central Academy of Fine Arts, and his MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
Zhou’s practice is driven by an investigation into the various adaptation traces left by the coexistence of individuals and populations. This includes examining how innovators adjust their technologies to suit a society’s specific economic conditions and resource base, and how individual lives navigate the resulting systemic oscillations as societal systems continuously optimize resource allocation in service of elite tech-innovations. Through a diverse range of mediums including video, installation, video games, and artist books, Zhou projects this ongoing body of research into visual and experiential forms. His exhibitions include:
