About me
How did I get here
What inspires me
Morgan DeVillier is a Denver Metro based artist. Her focuses are on her multi-racial identity, environmental justice, and reproductive and gender rights. She utilizes acrylic paint, photography, and written word to create. She graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Studio Art with a minor in Anthropology. Her interests in creating are driven by her curiosity to understand the current social and environmental state of the world. Through art she poses questions about human relationships to their environment and each other. Morgan’s art practice continues to develop as she explores herself as a person of color, multi-racial and white passing, as an American citizen, a Coloradan, a human being, and an anthropological and environmental observer. Join her on her journey of self discovery via instagram. (Link Below)
