Zoe Koke

THE PRESENCE IN PAINT | SEPTEMBER-October 2025

Zoe Koke (b. 1989, Alberta; MFA, UCLA, 2019; based in Los Angeles) creates paintings that conceptualize speed, decay, and landscape through a critical lens on capitalism. Her solo exhibitions include the second space in Zurich (2023) and shows at April April (NY), Smart Objects (LA), and Mai 36, while participating in group exhibitions across London, Paris, and Milan. Her oil and acrylic landscapes shift between figuration and abstraction, engaging with art history and environmental critique
