​Zoe Beaudry

BIOGRAPHY

Zoe Beaudry is a Detroit-based artist and curator of immersive art events. Her work ranges from photorealistic, surreal oil paintings to light-activated sculptural works and installations. Inspired by the frustrations, pleasures, and limitations of corporeal existence, Beaudry’s practice is founded on intentional engagement with ethical and metaphysical curiosities, passion for countercultural spaces and ways of relating, and a deep appreciation for non-human animals.

Beaudry’s art practice began at Kalamazoo College, where she obtained a BA in painting in 2014. She went on to pursue an MFA at the Glasgow School of Art in 2018.

Upon returning to Michigan and relocating her studio to Detroit in 2020, Beaudry’s practice has expanded to include sculptural elements that utilize physical light as a medium. After presenting solo shows at ARC Gallery in Chicago (2021), Playground Gallery in Detroit (2023), and the Lansing Art Gallery (2023), Beaudry spent time teaching at the College for Creative Studies and with the Ypsilanti-based Youth Arts Alliance. 

In 2024, Beaudry co-founded the House of Tarot (THOT) collective with Ashely Worden, which continues to produce large-scale, Tarot-themed exhibitions in Detroit, now with the support of the Knight Foundation, Mad Arts, and many other artists and collaborators.
