Hannah Morgan
Adrian Carruthers Award
2023
Hannah Morgan's work consists of sculptural installation. Her degree show presentation Animula is a series of propositions, drawing on geographic entanglement of matter and organisms, emergence and decay, of a cave site in the Moray Firth, Scotland. Text written in the back of the cave feeds the structures and forms. Navigating in-between spaces, volatile timelines, and questioning material contamination in relationship to the strata.
Hannah was selected for the 2022/23 Adrian Carruthers Award from a shortlist of artists by a panel including independent cultural producer and commissioner Nephertiti Oboshie Schandorf from a shortlist of six MFA graduate artists from The Slade School of Fine Art, University College London.
