Lori H Barrett creates mixed media collages inspired by the timeless power of storytelling. Drawing from fairytales, myths, biblical narratives, and the humorous idioms passed down by her grandfather, Papa Joe, her work blends literary tradition with visual whimsy. Her idiom collages feature playful interpretations of expressions like “Raining Cats and Dogs” and Southern sayings such as “Eating High on the Hog.” Her story collages are immersive, often embedding a miniature book or written tale within the artwork itself. Each piece invites viewers to rediscover familiar stories through layered textures, vibrant imagery, and heartfelt nostalgia. Lori’s work celebrates language, memory, and the joy of narrative, offering a visual journey through the stories that shape us.
