Laurence Philomène

Approaching photography and moving images in a playful and colorful manner, Laurence Philomène (24) spends most of their time playing with dolls and eating cheetos, and it shows. Winner of flickr’s 20 under 20 curator choice award, Laurence started their career at age 14 and has grown to create work utilizing color theory but also snack foods, press on nails, doll wigs and pepto bismol that explore softness and gender identity and often challenge contemporary photographic tropes. Some of their clients include Teen Vogue, Yahoo Style and Elle Girl Korea. Their video work seeks to highlight their subjects’ own uniqueness.
