Morgan Strong is a multimedia artist, currently based in Detroit. Her work is interdisciplinary and sculptural—consisting of many 3D elements, and various mediums, with a particular gravitation toward metals and fibers. She often blends these two modes together in her main body of work, juxtaposing the harsh and fragile. Conceptually, her work revolves around exploring the complexities of childhood, using dreamlike colors and imaginary scenes to depict an alternate reality that conveys feelings of childlike wonder, innocence, curiosity, and playfulness. She persistently seeks out sources of nostalgia, yearning for the re-experiencing of her childhood. A significant motif within her works are animal characters which represent each of her three siblings—who are a significant influence and inspiration to her practice. Her upbringing and domestic environment have played a major role in her artistic development, affecting her strong fascination with the adolescent perspective. Coming to terms with navigating independence, her work traverses the tension between youth and adulthood, leaning into the growing desire for a childhood that seems to be drifting further away—facing the fact that we inevitably grow older, and have no control over it.
