Harry Morgan (born 1990) is an emerging artist based in Manchester, UK. Since graduating from Edinburgh College of Art in 2014, Morgan has exhibited widely throughout the UK and internationally. As a finalist of the 2019 Loewe Craft Prize, his work was exhibited at Isamu Noguchi‘s indoor garden ‘Heaven’ in Tokyo, where the jury awarded him Special Mention. His sculptures are held in the permanent collections of the Victorian & Albert Museum, The National Museums of Northern Ireland, The European Museum of Modern Glass and the Loewe Foundation. 

“In the age of social polarisation and the ‘culture wars’, my focus as an artist is the interaction of opposites: transparent and opaque; mass and void; robust and fragile. Through contrast the true quality of materials can be highlighted, creating a sense of order, harmony and balance.”

Morgan’s approach to making fluctuates between the use of intuition, geometry and material expression. His work has been characterised by its unexpected marrying of materials and experimental approach to traditional processes. Reimagining the ancient crafts of glassblowing and concrete casting, his work challenges both the physical and cultural connotations of his chosen materials.
