About Morgan
My paintings represent a grasp for happiness through chronic illness and bereavement, and many of my pieces are prompted by intrusive thoughts made visual.
The chaotic, electric colours I use stem from vision problems I developed during Long Covid and lend themselves to my manic pace of output. I make paintings that feature riotous palettes and physical brushwork that often feel initially joyous but are underpinned with frantic disquiet: an exploration of my anxiety. Intentionally avoiding visual references, I instead work from memory as a means of developing an intuitive, naive language of painterly mark-making.
I don’t take commissions, but if you would like to purchase anything you’ve seen here, please feel free to get in touch.
