Read my response to some questions asked by the commissioners here.
Zoë Zo, Zoë Tumika & Zoë Guthrie is an artist from and living in Glasgow, Scotland.
They experience making art and supporting the creative practices of others as a way to
breathe,
reconfigure,
play,
be (a)live,
shift through space
exist in multiple temporalities.
Zoë works predominantly with clay, making ceramics using handbuilding techniques as well as wheel throwing. They also make using pen (lettering and drawing) and moving image.
Informed by the politics of Black Radicalism, Zoë employs narrative building and dismantling, listening and questioning, to consider alternative understandings and activate further possibilities as a means towards liberation.
Lovingly always becoming, they are a gut listener, metabolising through creative, untethered processes.
