Zoe Farmer earned her BA from the University of Virginia in 2024 in Studio Art with a concentration in New Media. Through video installation, performance, and sculpture, Zoe creates works that are visually tumultuous, appealing to immersive scales and modernistic technology.
Her practice is multidisciplinary and variable: from wearable projections in How a Computer Dresses, displayed at the McGuffey Art Center in April 2024, to working with metal and found objects in her installation piece Are You Saved from the same year. Zoe seeks to tell stories and create worlds that are collaborative and futurist; where she acts as both consumer and performer. In Spring of 2025, Zoe completed the year-long Aunspaugh Fellowship at the University of Virginia. During this time, lithography became a dedicated part of her practice and was integrated with Appalachian-inspired sculptural ephemera in group exhibitions Behind Daylight Hours and Echoes of the Shadows shown in Ruffin Gallery.
