Georgia Morgan

Georgia Morgan joins Neon Parc

The artist’s dynamic, multidisciplinary practice finds a home with the Melbourne gallery.

Words: Emily Riches

Neon Parc has announced its representation of Georgia Morgan, following her recent sell-out solo exhibition at the gallery’s South Yarra space. Morgan, a Tamil Australian artist, brings a rich, multidisciplinary approach to her practice, which spans installation, photography, video, painting and ceramics.

Morgan’s intimate and innovative work is deeply rooted in storytelling and the Hindu custom of pujaa devotional form of worship that involves offering physical objects, such as gold, fruit or flowers, to a deity. As Morgan explains, “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 are consistent in my practice. It is what I say it is. You believe, cause I believe.”

Currently part of the Gertrude Studio Program (2023-25), Morgan’s impressive career includes notable achievements such as winning the Tasmanian Women’s Art Prize (Emerging) in 2021 and receiving multiple accolades at the Churchie Emerging Art Prize in 2020. Her work has been acquired by Artbank and private collections throughout Australia.

Morgan’s current solo exhibition, Nothing’s forever cause everything is, is now showing at Gertrude Glasshouse from 6 March to 12 April. The exhibition showcases new works alongside her 2022 series, Dreams and Effigies (to be burnt), exploring the persistence of memory, language and ritual.
