Louise Ward Morris RSS is an award-winning British sculptor specialising in New Media. Her practice combines diverse interests in technology, architecture, psychology, and science to create sculptures that examine the parameters of our perception through technology.

​

Louise’s practice disrupts quotidian technology like mobile phones, computers and TVs to critique digital culture and technological development. A core concern for the artist is the environmental and social consequences of technology’s lifecycle, including acute issues like e-waste.

​

Currently, Louise is developing a sculptural research project titled the Digital Mirage, which converges energy, light and data in space using screen technology and sculpture. Digital Mirage studies how visible transitions between light and energy manifest in the digital aesthetic on-screen and includes a unique process of handmaking liquid crystal pixels. 

​

Born in London, Louise lives and works in Barcelona. Her work has been recognised by the 2024 Ramon Llull Institute & Fabra i Coats Mentorship Award, the 2023 Royal Society of Sculptors’ Gilbert Bayes Award and the 2022 Clifford Chance UAL Award for Sculpture. In 2021, she received an MA in Fine Art with distinction from Central Saint Martins.

​

Louise’s work has been exhibited in venues including the Saatchi Gallery, Tate Modern, Royal Society of Sculptures, Manifesta15 Focus Week, London Short Film Festival, Lux Moving Image, The Art House Wakefield, Contact Theatre Manchester, Phoenix Brighton, Common Room Shanghai, and Casa RARO in Barcelona. Her work is held in collections including The Royal College of Nursing and UAL, and has been funded by organisations like the Arts Council, Artists' Network and the South Square Trust.​
