Zoe Baer
Zoe Baer (born 1994, Paris) is a fine artist specialising in photorealist charcoal drawings and a professional art restorer. Her journey in art is deeply rooted in her fascination with the interplay of light, shadow, and texture. After earning a BA in Film & Media from University College London in 2017, Zoe pursued her passion for art restoration, graduating from the Atelier du Temps Passé in Paris in 2021. This dual expertise in fine art and restoration gives Zoe a unique perspective, allowing her to bridge the gap between preserving the past and creating new works with meticulous precision.
Zoe's photorealist charcoal drawings are defined by their rich, evocative tones and careful attention to detail. Each stroke and shading is crafted to convey emotional intensity, inviting viewers to experience moments of intimacy and reflection. Her chosen medium of charcoal enables her to capture not only the physical likeness of her subjects but also the silent narratives and emotions they carry.
As an art restorer, Zoe breathes new life into historical works, honoring the original visions of past artists while maintaining cultural relevance. This practice has deepened her appreciation for the diverse techniques spanning art history, further influencing her creative output.
Currently, Zoe divides her time between Paris and Luzern, where the contrasting art scenes continually challenge and inspire her artistic vision. Since 2024, her work has been represented by the BOTA Gallery (Austria) and Smith and Co. Galleries, and she is set to participate in a group exhibition at the Holy Art Gallery in Paris. Zoe’s art is a tribute to the beauty found in life’s smallest details, offering moments of stillness and connection in an ever-fast-paced world.
