Freya Douglas-Morris

'With her playful spin on time and space, Douglas-Morris blurs the line between memory and myth. Day seeps into night. Spiritual and material worlds intersect' - Kate Neave

Freya Douglas-Morris studied Fine Art at Brighton University before receiving an MA from the Royal College of Art in 2013. Upon graduating from the RCA, she was selected for the Bloomberg New Contemporaries, The New Sensations & The Catlin Guide.

 

She has work featured in the publications 100 Painters of Tomorrow, Paper: Saatchi Gallery and most recently The Anomie Review of Contemporary British Painting 2, as well as various magazines. She has shown internationally and lives and works in London.
