K-Apostrophe
K’era Morgan is a Los Angeles-based mixed media artist who currently has a penchant for small works on paper and a long term love affair with textile traditions from around the world.
Having previously launched a photographic derived textile company with a fellow designer, K’era desired to return to the art of creating by hand without the aid of digital and hi-tech tools. Her current mixed media work is heavily influenced by tribal/global textile surface design, mark making and the craft of quilt-making.
In fact, she considers the act of ‘’piecing together’’ her collaged paintings that include found paper sourced from magazines, newspapers and books as well hand-painted paper, much like the process of quilting together a story.
In addition to her collage work, K’era collaborates with one of the few remaining American mills to transform her multi-media pieces into colorful woven throw blankets made of 100% hand-dyed cotton for home interiors. Cosy, casual and comfortable, the woven throws are an extension of K'era's affinity for quilts and functional art made for everyday use and enjoyment.
