ABOUT THE
ARTIST
Morvern is a multi-award winning storyteller, printmaker and visual artist, living and working from her windswept home studio on the edge of the North Sea.
Captivated by the stories of myth and folklore she grew up listening to, Morvern’s work focuses on gathering and telling stories from the landscapes of her native Scotland and beyond, through a combination of aural performance and visual design.
She is currently the Storyteller in Residence for Ffern; traveling from coast to coast across the British Isles and uncovering the stories of our shared heritage and folk-traditions.
