About
Zoé Numan, a half-French, half-Dutch artist, was born in Paris and moved around France before relocating to Maastricht, Netherlands, to study philosophy. She discovered painting independently, outside her academic studies, and has pursued it ever since. She is currently completing an MFA at La Cambre in Brussels.
Drawn to moments or situations that carry a sense of mystery or wonder, her atmospheric paintings explore complex emotions and the silent communication that exists beyond words. Through her figurative approach, she questions the subtle boundary between reality and imagination, much like the experience of a daydream.
