"Shifting Ground" Exhibition with Lori Kella

Presented by Akron Soul Train at Akron Soul Train, Akron OH

Jul 20 2022

Aug 27 2022

Lori Kella used her residency at Akron Soul Train to continue her exploration of the eroding Northcoast shoreline and its battle with the climate crisis.

Kella builds fantastical dioramas from paper and natural materials depicting a balance between natural destruction and hope.  Dramatic lighting is added to her fabrications, and they are photographed.  From these come beautiful, haunting photographs depicting slipping mud, exposed tree roots, rotting docks and crumbling stone in a precarious balancing act.

She states, “The photographs also hint at the ephemeral nature of the lake ecosystem and lead one to ponder the realm of loss in the face of pervasive environmental threats, while also offering a moment of reflection and a renewed discovery of the natural world.”
