About the Artist
Lou Bou is a Montreal-based photographer who recently graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from Concordia University. Their work focuses on tintype portraiture - a 19th-century photographic technique - while also engaging with textile arts. Lou’s practice delves into trans and marginalized identities, using the studio environment to foster community, care and repair. By confronting historical processes with contemporary issues, they question access to archives and explore how forgotten narratives continue to resurface.
