Zoë is a born and bred New Yorker. She's also a performer and writer. Zoë likes writing about as well as playing shape-shifters—cyphers, frauds, impostors, those beings you can never pin down and define. She finds those moments when someone or something turns into something else entirely horrifying, thrilling, and electric. She's also interested in weird, oceanic creatures entering into the lives of everyday people. Exploring that meeting—between the fantastical and the mundane—is pretty much why she does art.
