Hi! I'm Zophia (ZAW-fiah), a 24-year-old artist and musician from Saint Paul, MN, based in Minneapolis
I have been photographing passion projects and freelance work since 2013. My images have been shared online and in print by organizations like Rookie, New Yorker Photo, Unpublished , and, No Sleep Records. I completed a collections internship with Visual Studies Workshop in the summer of 2020.
My experience includes (but isn't limited to!) music and language teaching, cataloging, library materials conservation, and content creation.
For commission requests, collaborations, questions, or just to get in touch, say hello by email!
