Lori Nix and Kathleen Gerber

Lori Nix and Kathleen Gerber have been making art collaboratively for over twenty years. They construct meticulously detailed model environments and photograph the results. For the past two decades they have found inspiration in their urban surroundings, imagining a future mysteriously devoid of mankind. Their miniature fake landscapes and interiors reflect a love of science fiction and dystopian entertainment, with an appreciation for great architecture. Because the work is of a model and not a real place, it creates a safe space to consider the larger ideas of disaster and our collective future.
