Mo
Bio
Their work has been screened and exhibited internationally, including at ICDOCS, London Short Film Festival, Kasseler Dokefest, Alchemy Film and Moving Image Festival, Global Citizen, and Camden Art Centre.
Amongst other awards, Morisha is a recipient of a Develop Your Creative Practice grant from Art Council England, AXS Film Fund 2025, and was a selected artist for FVU New Takes 2025.
They completed their BA in Fine Art (2020) at Central Saint Martins, graduating with First Class Honours. Morisha attained their MFA in Art, Theory, and Practice (2024) from Northwestern University and also achieved a Certificate in Critical Theory.
Morisha was the Archive and Historic Preservation Fellow at Ox-Bow School of Art, the inaugral Northwestern Fellow at the Flaherty 2024, a participant of Barbican’s The Archive is Permanently Under Construction, Chisenhale’s Into The Wild, AfA’s Politics of Sharing, and National Portrait Gallery’s Youth Forum.
Practice
To crip and queer video, Morisha embraces tactics like glitch aesthetics, repetition, and what Trinh T Minh-ha calls the “blackouts” and “silences” of everyday life.
They commit to making art that champions crip, queer life and experience, invoking Bob Flanagan’s maxim that “surviving well can paradoxically mean surviving sick.” The art that they make can survive sick and still do its work well.
& Beyond
Alongside an active art and curatorial practice, Morisha works within the arts, cultural, and heritage sector. They have a breadth of experience working in arts organisations, primarily within fundraising, administration and engagement. They have a passion for outreach programmes and work to encourage diverse and accessible opportunities within the arts.
