Kevin Andrew Morris, based in Aberdeen, is often referred to as a ‘Nomadic Ceramicist’ exhibiting his work nationally and internationally, working with a range of artists, institutions and on various public projects. Opportunities to travel research and make work internationally have been important to him recently but opportunities to work locally are also perfectly situated for the development of his practice and themes present in his work.
Initially motivated by an investigation of his own family heritage and material culture his recent work engages with concepts of craft, material and place. Making narrative work that considers traditional and contemporary practice as well our collective connections to heritage and tradition, through ceramic slip casting and atmospheric firing.
Integral to his practice is participation and engagement, valuing opportunities to continue to learn and work alongside others. Providing the foundations of contemporary skills, expertise and knowledge through educational and production which support and inform his practice.
