Dylan Morris

My name is Dylan Morris, I am a 27 year-old mixed media visual artist working out of South-East London. Ultimately, any work I do is part of an ongoing therapeutic process to forge some sense of catharsis for myself over feelings of frustration and alienation, mainly as they pertain to our hyper-consumerist society. I use materials that have their own narrative or value in a wider cultural context and manipulate them to communicate something personal, attempting to create a harmony between the communal experience and my own. I'm interested in reflecting on the experience of growing up in an increasingly complex digital environment and the subsequent changes in culture. I try to examine the contested terrain of contemporary media culture, understand the forces at play and eventually subvert the slick, sinister forces of commercialist cultural control. Through a gradual, physical and detail intensive practice, I'm able to create a meditative sense of stillness, removed from the volatile and elusive digital space. All of this allows me to reflect on contemporary media culture, defined by its digital essence, while maintaining the tactile experience from which the therapeutic nature of my practice is drawn.
