Polly Morgan

Polly Morgan was born in England in 1980 and lives and works in London. She had an unconventional upbringing, raised in the country alongside goats, llamas, hens, hamsters and every other popular domesticated animal, but only discovered taxidermy some years after coming to live in London at 18. In 2005 she studied the art under George Jamieson and has subsequently forged a personal practice founded on its technical conventions.

Solo exhibitions include The Exquisite Corpse: A Reconstruction Project, at 1 Marylebone Road, London, 2007 and Still Life After Death at Kristy Stubbs Gallery, Dallas, 2007. Group exhibitions include Wonderland, Assab One, Milan, 2010, The Age of the Marvellous, All Visual Arts, London, 2009, Mythologies, Haunch of Venison, London, and You Dig the Tunnel, IÂ’ll Hide the Soil, White Cube, London, 2008.
