About Me
Hi I’m Sophie! I am a photographer and mixed media artist. Thorough the conceptual backbone of photography I use abstraction, compositing and collage to address conflations between internal and external experiences. Using my art to separate, question and morph what it is to understand the “self” as we exist in a social structure and as individuals. On an individual and collective level I find that the struggle between reality and fiction is a central part of that question and it’s something I always come back to when creating my work.
