Artist 8




Lori Nix

Lori Nix is an artist who create Dioramas and then photographs them. Dioramas are miniature environments made in a box, carrying case, window act. Not only is her model building impressive as hell, but her lighting as well. Her Tinny worlds are "lived in", almost apocalyptic which tend to sell the reality more. As a kid i built models and and had miniature train sets, so i'm easily impressed by miniaturizing objects and creating an entire environment.

  1. A bit reminiscent of Casebere and a clever way to make a post-apocalyptic world. I like her Accidentally Kansas series, e.g., see the last one in the series titled "dogs." The series makes me think a bit of some of Nagatani's work.
