Linzi Morgan Whitting

Linzi Morgan Whitting is a mixed media printmaker and ceramicist living and working from her studio in the Marches, Powys.  Her work explores crafting story telling through song stories woven into audio/visual film with moving drawn images, mixed media book form, and ceramic sculpture. 

“I draw inspiration from my love of song writing, poetry and surface pattern, the re-telling of stories weaving narratives through mixed media book form, moving image song drawings and ceramic sculptures.

At the core of these multi mediums is a love of line
drawing, and this can be seen through the expressive surface pattern & sgraffito techniques that resonate across the works, be it in stitch, pencil, print or scratched in line filled with underglaze. These techniques, and the excitement of re-telling stories, is what inspires me and drives me to make and share my skills and work”.

Recently graduated from HCA, Linzi gained her masters degree with distinction for Contemporary Crafts and was awarded the Courtyard Creative Award 2022 for her masters project works Open Book.
“These works are the indexical outcomes of the processes representing my creative practice journey through song craft, stitch, and ceramics. The connections I make between narratives and storytelling in physical form, help me make sense of my own life story, heal, and find creative expression. These works explore the relationship between my making and healing. Through crafting stories making meaning happens at every turn, from process to outcome, a succession of cascading moments, each entirely whole”.
