Zoë Paul

Zoë Paul is a South African-born, Athens-based sculptor and painter. She combines traditional techniques with products of industrial waste to examine community, craft and domestic spaces.
Early life and education
Zoë Paul's parents came to Greece from South Africa during the apartheid era. Paul, born in 1987 in South Africa, grew up in the United Kingdom and Greece, on an island of Kythira. Due to her family's limited resources at the time, Paul learned how to work with various materials at an early age. She studied sculpture at Camberwell College of Arts, where she received her BA, and at Royal College of Art in London, where she earned her MA. As Paul is a trained sculptor, her art has also been influenced by Classical Greek sculpture.
Exhibitions
Paul's solo exhibition La Perma-Perla Kraal Emporium, which explores hospitality and community, has been hosted at The Breeder gallery in Athens and at the Spike Island Artspace in Bristol, UK.
Paul's work has also been included in the Unorthodox exhibition at the and in The Equilibrists exhibition at the Benaki Museum in Athens.
