Kate Morgan is a multi-award winning mixed media artist who has displayed work from Washington, D.C to Minneapolis and well as hanging in domestic and European private collections. Frustrated at the digital photography world for not being tactile enough, she turned to mixed media. Morgan is inspired by folklore, mythology &amp; the human form. Layers of collage are mixed with her ink washed drawings to address symbolic, cultural, historical &amp; spiritual themes with purposeful vagueness, allowing them to be familiar to a variety of audiences. Visually described as a haunting interpretation of anatomy where divinity meets mythic lore. ”I want my work to be the beginning of a dialogue, not a confrontation." Though she works in mixed media now, Morgan earned her B.F.A in commercial photography from Columbus College of Art and Design. Born in Syracuse, NY &amp; raised in Columbus, OH she is also versed in printmaking &amp; ceramics. Kate has been living her dream as a full time artist since 2012 by traveling the country showing her work while maintaining a studio in Columbus, Ohio.

Shawn Augustson is an interdisciplinary artist who explores the intersection of film photography, traditional painting, and pottery. Drawing inspiration from personal experiences with mental health challenges, his work serves as a therapeutic outlet to overcome daily hardships. Through the tactile process of pottery, the meditative act of painting, and the nostalgic charm of film photography, Shawn navigates his inner struggles and external realities with resilience and creativity. His art reflects a journey of self-discovery and healing, inviting viewers to connect with their own emotions and find solace in the transformative power of artistic expression. He is a gallery represented artist exclusively through Hayley Gallery in New Albany OH. His work has been in the Kurt Vonnegut Museum in Indianapolis, The National Veterans Art Museum in Chicago, The Columbus Museum of Art and the National Veterans Museum and Memorial in Columbus, OH.
