Lori Landau is an interdisciplinary artist whose work explores consciousness, cosmology, and the relationship between form and formlessness in nature. Drawing on her long-standing meditation and poetics praxis, Lori’s work takes shape as handmade books, portraits, photography, poems, and most recently visual mapping of birdsong, waves, and other environmental phenomena. She is deeply interested in contemplative processes that explore and share somatic, intuitive, and mythological forms of knowledge, while rebelling against violence and disconnection. Lori intentionally engages with ecology, community, and deep listening practices to experience an energy exchange between the environment and her own body, mind and spirit. She holds a Master’s degree in Interdisciplinary Arts with a concentration in Decolonial Arts Praxis from Goddard College and is a PhD candidate in Southwestern College’s Visionary Practice and Regenerative Leadership program that amplifies both being and doing as ways of co-creating with nature.
