found object, storyteller
Norola Morgan was a weird kid who loved to read and draw and ask too many questions. She grew up in a small town in central Texas where there was plenty of cows and football, but not much art. Thank goodness for the local library and interlibrary loan! Voracious reading offered her windows to a wider world, and she left to explore that wider world as soon as she could. After earning a BFA in Painting at the University of Houston, she stayed in Houston for the museums, theaters, cultural diversity, authentic weirdness, and low cost of living.
Painting fell by the wayside once she discovered working with 3-d materials. She assembles fabric, found objects and paper into unique art dolls that shock and delight. Her love of multiple media fuel her explorations into performance, cosplay, and costume and prop fabrication. She's excited to see where these experiments take her.
