Artist
Louis Morlæ
Louis Morlæ is an artist who uses digital rendering, design and manufacturing processes to produce sculpture, video and installation.
Through his sculptures, which reference domestic and industrial design language, Morlæ proposes an act of 're-worlding' - creating objects that question technological constructs and explore our potential to dream of new worlds. Using digital animation, he brings his sculpures to life; they become the central characters in surreal narratives, engaging with ideas of the metaverse, escapism and the boundless speculative potential of these digital spaces.
Morlæ's work seeks to understand how technology can be deployed to shape society, while offering reflection on the associated dangers, ambitions, and hopes that it presents.
Morlæ is a resident at Somerset House Studios for the Creative Technologies Fellowship, in partnership with UAL Creative Computing Institute (CCI).
