Zoé Komkommer (born 1998) is a photographer based in Antwerp – Belgium. At a young age, she was inspired by her mother who took pictures of their family with an analogue camera, a type of camera she now uses.
Zoé Komkommer captures scenes from her everyday life. Her images are outward signs of the life she leads, kept out of an underlying fear that all may one day be lost. In a serene and poetic way, she tries to hold together all the puzzle pieces that make up her life.
Zoé Komkommer tries to go beyond the visible of the day-to-day, and dwell on time and memory. Concepts that keep changing over the years. Her reality is bridged by a dreamlike world, in which she hovers between the fragility of existence and the power of being. Her work can be described as suffused with a warm melancholy.
