About

Zoë Montgomery is a Canadian-born photographer and facilitator living and working between Brighton, UK and London, UK. Zoë has keen interests in clinical and creative representation of neurodivergence, in addition to the impacts of gender and sexuality in bureaucratic systems and domestic dynamics; These themes are uncovered through the convergence of analog, digital and sculptural-photographic experimentation.
