Hannah Morgan
Hannah Morgan’s work is sculptural installation. Combining film, audio, sculpture, and text to create material components that consider decay and emergence. Thresholds, unearthing, preservation, trace, and speculation underpin their practice. Morgan creates narratives through sculptural assemblage and text/audio that consider loss and transformative states of being that address the precarity of self, object and the natural world.
