Zo\u00e9 Imber is a French artist and designer based in Normandy.<\/p>

In 2016, Zo\u00e9 moved to London, UK, where she co-founded the multidisciplinary design studio Homefolks<\/a> with her partner. Alongside her collaborative work, Zo\u00e9 has long nurtured a fascination with Nature\u2014gathering unusual plant specimens and experimenting with drying techniques from an early age. Over time, this quiet practice evolved into a deep creative impulse to explore her own path.<\/span><\/p>

In 2021, Zo\u00e9 presented her first body of work, ‘Inventory’<\/em> with botanical elements taking center stage. Her intricate compositions \u2013 made from pressed, bleached, and dried plants \u2013 echo the visual language of tapestry and plumasserie<\/em>, revealing a delicate balance between design and natural poetry.<\/p>

She returned to France in 2024, and settled in the picturesque Perche region. A new shared atelier \u2013 home to both her individual practice and the Homefolks studio \u2013 is currently in development and will open by appointment starting autumn 2025.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\u201cCut flowers are the very expression of ephemerality. By pressing them, I indefinitely extend their life in a new cycle, allowing them to age and transform slowly over time and under the influence of the elements. My works will acquire unique chromatic variations, transparencies, and new textures.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The project ‘Inventory’<\/em> unfolds in two interconnected series \u2014 the Living Inventories <\/i>are pieces in constant transformation. In contrast, the Inventories <\/i>feature bleached plant elements, suspended in a slowed-down temporality, capturing the illusion of permanence, preserving the fleeting in a state of stillness.


At once vibrant and tinged with melancholy, both series explore the beauty of\u00a0impermanence through a poetic dialogue\u00a0between nature and time.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
