Editor’s note: Our series “My Atlanta” turns the spotlight on photographers, using their images and supporting text to illustrate how living in Atlanta has inspired their careers and lives. Today, we feature the work of Beth Lilly.   

Beth Lilly moved to Snellville from Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1975 and ran away from home that summer, taking only her Kodak Duaflex. She was found and returned but made some great images. She earned a bachelor’s degree in film production from the University of Georgia and an MFA in photography from Georgia State University.  Her work resides in the permanent collections of the High Museum of Art, the New Mexico Museum of Art, The Ogden Museum of Southern Art, MOCA GA and the Zuckerman Museum of Art. Her critically acclaimed performance/interactive project “The Oracle @ WiFi” was published by Kehrer Verlag in 2012.

Lilly is represented in Atlanta by Spalding Nix Fine Art, where the work shown here (and more) will be featured in the main gallery January 20-March 10 2023″
