Laurence Philomene is a non-binary photographer from Montreal, Canada. They create colourful images that centre around queer and trans experiences, often through long-form and autobiographical projects.

Laurence’s work is informed by their lived experiences as a chronically ill, non-binary transgender artist coming of age amid the rise of social media. Through high-saturated, cinematic and caring images, their work celebrates trans existence, and studies identity as a space in constant flux.

Instantly recognizable by their signature use of colour and ambient light, their photographs humanize historically marginalized identities, and act as a love letter to their community.
