Lori Nix

I recently came across Lori Nix' work and was immediately drawn to her original and unique concept. Her photos are taken of elaborate and detailed miniature built sets, covering a range of scenes such as the series, Accidentally Kansas inspired by her interest in disaster movies.
Some of her photos have an eerie mood, yet others seem to have a more humourous feel to them. I love her interesting use of selective focus and the sense of life and movement in all of her images. I find it amazing how much work and precise detail has been put into making each set perfectly to communicate her idea.
Lori has recently left Kansas - where she grew up and which has been a big influence on her work - to move to New York, which is inspiring some ideas for new work focusing on, where city and rural landscapes meet.
