Georgia Morgan’s new exhibition By Proximity is an exercise in making tangible the unseen or out of reach. Diasporic identity contains a powerful link, real or imagined, to one’s territorial and ancestral homeland and its people.

Georgia’s image making is located within the textural grittiness of her contemporary life, and whilst ostensibly whimsical, belies a deceptive deftness in conflating personal myth, emblem and dream. The forms do not quite function as mnemonic triggers, as the codes within her work are not focused on remembering. Rather, if Georgia Morgan’s artworks were tools, they could be considered as devices for fathoming. – Lucy Bleach
