H.E. Morris

Born 1989, USA

Lives and works in London, UK

H. E. Morris has received an MA from Goldsmiths in Contemporary Art Theory, an MFA from the University of Iowa in Painting and Drawing, and a BA from Hampshire College. Morris was a fellow at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, MA in 2019, and a Soho Revue Artist in Residence in 2023. Morris is currently in her final year as a PhD researcher in Fine Art at Newcastle University. Her practice is interested in working through a place of emotion to search for a truth. Structuring her paintings through memory, she explores the temporalities of narrative in order to test a notion of time that splits between working through absence and presence. Morris’s work can also be found in the collection of the Green Family Art Foundation, Dallas, TX, US; and in Museu Inimá de Paula, Brasil.
