Komo POV

Morgan Young’s work is a natural evolution of her practice as a fashion designer and young figure skater. Her transition from fashion to fine art occurred after she had launched a high fashion line from reclaimed and deadstock fabrics and felt called to move towards a different expression of those materials. She began pushing the boundaries of canvas into a realm that expresses the form of a triple axel with the poetry and repetition of a vintage Singer. Deep pleats, patterned seams, and the vortex of visceral movement became her focal points, each work requiring a grueling physicality, the end result a serene and languid, almost nimbus iridescence flowing from the ripples of a once raw and rough fabric. Her latest collection Pleats, Please, Please is an homage to Japanese fashion designer, Issey Miyake.
