~ About the Artist ~After a photography journey spanning decades, Lori Golding Zontini is overjoyed to announce her return to the art world with Ethereal, her first exhibition since 2007. This show is a deeply personal milestone, representing not only her creative evolution but also her lifelong love for capturing the world around us.
Born and raised in Norfolk and a proud resident of Virginia Beach since Lori was 16, her roots are woven into the landscapes that inspire her. From the soft waves of our beaches to the tranquil flow of our waterways and the majestic peaks of our mountains, Virginia’s natural beauty has always been her muse. Lori’s work takes these familiar settings and reimagines them, infusing vibrant colors and surreal elements to create dreamlike, ethereal visions that invite you to see the world through her lens.
Photography has been part of Lori’s story since childhood—an ever-present companion that has grown with her through life’s milestones. Now, at 50, she’s realized there’s no better time to share the culmination of years of passion, learning, and exploration. Working in a community that embraces and uplifts local artists has inspired her to take this leap, to bring her vision into the light, and to say, “Why wait any longer?”
This show is more than an exhibit—it’s a celebration of dreams realized, a tribute to the beauty that surrounds us, and a heartfelt invitation to step into the surreal.
Lori would be deeply honored to share this moment with her friends, family, and supporters. Your presence on opening night would mean the world to Lori, as together, we celebrate the art, the journey, and the courage to bring a lifelong dream to life.
Let’s make this evening unforgettable—an ode to art, to community, and to the timeless power of following our passions.
Show will run from March 15 - 23, 2025
