In the Reflection of the Rice Paddies (Maria)

Sophie Zénon has concentrated for the past ten years or so on the photographic staging of absence, on our relationship with ancestors and with direct line of descent. She’s been the winner of a number of awards, including the Prix Résidence pour la photographie from the Fondation des Treilles (2015) and the Prix Kodak de la critique photographique (1999), and has been nominated for the Prix Niépce (2011, 2015) and the Prix de l’Académie des Beaux-Arts (2010). She’s represented by the Galerie Thessa Herold in Paris, Comptoirs Arlésiens de la Jeune Photographie in Arles, and Schilt Gallery in the Netherlands.
