Mali Morris RA, Painter Talks About Her Work
British painter Mali Morris’s career stretches back over 50 years. Her experiments with colour, layering, and pictorial space have made her one of the most intriguing abstract painters in the UK today. She was elected a Royal Academician in 2010 and shows regularly in the Summer Exhibitions there.
Mali Morris was born in North Wales 1945 and studied Fine Art at the Universities of Newcastle upon Tyne and Reading during the 1960s. She has been showing nationally and internationally since her first major exhibitions at the Serpentine Summer Show 3, London, 1977 and the Ikon Gallery, Birmingham, 1979. Since then she has held over 40 solo shows, and has been included in numerous group shows, at the Barbican, Hayward Gallery, Serpentine Gallery, Whitechapel Gallery, Walker Art Gallery Liverpool, Whitworth Gallery Manchester, Museum of Wales Cardiff, as well as a number overseas. She designed the flags that hung over Bond Street during the Summer of 2022.
Her most recent solo shows were Three Ghosts at Hales New York in 2022, and Calling, at the Ikon, Birmingham, in 2023. Forthcoming in September 2024 is Returning, at the Hatton Gallery, Newcastle.
