Fiona Morley graduated from Edinburgh College of Art in 1996 with a BA hons in Sculpture. She now lives and works in Brighton UK. Fiona’s unique style combines sculpture and drawing with wire. This lifts the drawn line off the page to create depth and 3 dimensional quality. She also combines her drawings in wire with emulsion paint and gold leaf. Her works have also been presented in many major international Art Fairs in London, Miami, Chicago, Paris, New York and Stockholm. 

Fiona Morley work attempts to explore our humanity and psychology, our relationships with ourselves, loved ones and our community. More recently and specifically she has been interested in the nature and movement of thoughts, how thoughts give rise to feelings of entrapment through fears and anxiety. How we can get stuck in stories we think define us. And ultimately the pursuit of freedom from these thoughts.

Within her imagery she uses symbols from the natural world, animal, bird, plant to represent aspects of our inner worlds and conflicts. primarily the tension between the‘enlightened’or‘free’self, and the pull of our ego with its enticing endless chatter, often negative, illusionary and binding. It also alludes to our inter-connectedness with all forms of life, where, especially in the western world we increasing separate ourselves from nature.
