Georgia Morgan (b. Eora Nation | Sydney 1992) is a Tamil Australian artist whose practice is devotional and aspirational. It is storytelling. Working as a multidisciplinary artist, Morgan explores large-scale site-specific installations, photographs, videos, paintings and ceramics. Materiality, play, intuition and imagining inform her process. The artist says, “I am in one place and longing for another (that may or may not exist). When I look at the work I have made, I repeatedly think of puja. Puja is a hindu act of worship that involves offering physical objects — such as gold, fruit or flowers — to an image of a god. Sometimes gold foil or plastic fruit or flowers are offered. This doesn’t detract from the value of worship, as it is the conviction of the action that matters. This knowledge and use of material is consistent in my practice. It is what I say it is. You believe cause I believe.”
