This Isn't Healing, but It's Something
Zoe Blum is a multidisciplinary artist whose work is focused on her personal experiences surrounding the themes of trauma, memory, and mental health. Her painted photographs reflect how memory is altered as a body goes through distressing events, emphasizing feelings of confusion, disorientation, and curiosity. Blum currently resides in Cincinnati attending the University of Cincinnati’s DAAP program, on her way to earning a BFA with a certificate in photography. She has had work shown in a number of exhibitions at the Tabula Rasa Gallery in Cincinnati and has collaborated with companies such as IKEA and Cummins, Inc. in her professional experience. Blum continues to explore how paint can alter the context of photography in her work and investigates how paint can be a vessel for remembering.
