About the Exhibition: I Remember
In her latest body of Work, Ann Morgan reimagines the tradition of heroic landscape
painting through the lens of a life lived online. Drawing from AI-generated imagery
trained on her own photographs and the social media images of friends, Morgan builds
vast digital landscapes that are later
translated into large-scale oil paintings. Rooted in post-pandemic reality, where
screens mediate much of human experience,
these works explore what it means to depict "nature" when our most familiar environments
are virtual.
These paintings propose a new kind of realism - one where the idealized world is not
found outdoors, but online.
Find out more about the Artist:
Ann Morgan is a contemporary painter based in Denver, whose work explores landscape
as a record of memory, time, and change. She grew up in Michigan and has lived and
worked in New York City and Washington, D.C., experiences that inform her interest
in how place is shaped by both physical environment and technological mediation.
She earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Michigan State University and spent a year
as an AmeriCorps*VISTA before pursuing graduate study at New York University. Before
her current her studio practice, Morgan developed an early career in digital media
and technology, working for over two decades in roles that included teaching computer
skills, developing and managing websites and working in technology-focused senior
roles. Digital culture continues to inform her artistic process as a subject, a process,
and a way of thinking and being in the world.
