Cory Morrison (b. 1995) is an artist from California’s Central Valley. His work involves a contemporary exploration of humankind’s past, present, and future connection to nature. Through mixed media and found object — particularly foraged items — his work reflects ideas of ecology and environmental awareness in minimalist and abstract ways. He is currently a member of the artist co-op at the Grand Theatre Center for the Arts.
