Shaun Fraser and Harry Morgan: Home
‘Home’ invites contemplation of the nature of belonging, identity, and the spaces that shape us.
Shaun Fraser probes the links between identity, landscape, and our connection to place, finding inspiration in the Scottish Highland landscape of his upbringing. His sculptures, which often incorporate peat and local soils, translate personal engagement and memory into visual forms, evoking a sense of place and asserting the equal validity of both actual and conceptual notions of home.
In conversation with this, Harry Morgan’s work explores the interaction of materially opposite media to create a sense of order, harmony, and balance. Transparent and opaque, robust and fragile, the materials that Morgan unexpectedly marries offer a reflection on the structures, stability, and interacting dynamics that define our sense of home.
The artists have exhibited regularly together since meeting during their studies at Edinburgh College of Art.
