Lives in Brooklyn, New York and specializes in constructing dioramas and photographing the results.

Lori’s childhood was spent in playing at open fields and witnessing countless storms and natural disasters, and has left she with a deep affection for the American landscape. This love of the land and sky, along with a fascination for the absurdities of life, has developed into a series of photographs of constructed landscapes. Cardboard, plaster, models and paint are used to create highly detailed dioramas for the camera. Lori Nix tries to maintain a sense of dark, but humorous, irony in the stories she tells by combining a sense of innocence with tragedy.
