Kate Morgan - Multi-award winning mixed media artist Kate Morgan has displayed work from Washington, D.C to Minneapolis with work hanging in domestic and European private collections. Frustrated at the digital photography world for not being tactile enough, she turned to mixed media. Morgan is inspired by folklore, mythology & the human form. Layers of collage are mixed with her ink washed drawings to address symbolic, cultural, historical & spiritual themes with purposeful vagueness, allowing them to be familiar to a variety of audiences. Visually described as a haunting interpretation of anatomy where divinity meets mythic lore. ”I want my work to be the beginning of a dialogue, not a confrontation." Though she works in mixed media now, Morgan earned her B.F.A in commercial photography from Columbus College of Art and Design. Born in Syracuse, NY & raised in Columbus, OH she is also versed in printmaking & ceramics. Kate has been living her dream as a full time artist since 2012 by traveling the Country showing her work while maintaining a studio in Columbus, Ohio.
