Morag Myerscough

Artist and Designer

Born and bred in London, UK, Morag Myerscough, artist and designer, creates installations and immersive spatial artworks that transform places and champion community and public interaction.

Her work is firmly rooted in a very personal experience of belonging and never fails to charm, entice and encourage people to feel differently about their experience of where they are. Every artwork generates a very specific local response, which she uses to create community and build identity within a place.

From schools and hospitals to cultural hubs and town centers Morag transforms public spaces by creating engaging experiences for everyone.
