About the Artist:
Kim Morgan is a visual artist working in sculpture, installation and multi-media. Born in Saskatchewan and now based in Halifax, her work explores the impact of technology on people’s perceptions of time, space, and the body, and the shifting boundaries between the private and the public. An essential part of her practice has been creating interdisciplinary collaborative public art installations. These projects use public space as a laboratory to consider current issues.
