Painting
Andorra
Fiona Morrison is a multidisciplinary artist working in painting, photography, video art, and installation. Born in 1970 in Andorra, she gradually expanded her career across neighboring countries, building an international presence. Her work often explores the deep connection between humanity and nature, with a special focus on Native American communities and their environmental leadership. Through her art, Morrison delves into the interplay between freedom and constraint, weaving themes of memory, time, and traces into a profound meditation on life’s mysteries and the hidden potential within the visible and invisible. From 1998 to 2020, she was represented by the Joan Prats Gallery in Barcelona. In 2013, curator Henry Périer selected her to represent Andorra at the 55th Venice Biennale with her video art piece “Two Walks”. As a curator, Morrison organized four editions of “La Poepera Poetry and Art Festival” in the village of La Pera, Empordà, Spain, blending poetry and art into a unique conceptual creative platform.

As an artists with Spanish-British origins, I created Reconstruction Game to reflect on the impact of colonization on Native American communities and to express my apology for the actions of European colonizers. The work features 400 wooden blocks, each inscribed with the name of a Native American tribe, symbolizing their rich diversity. By interacting with the blocks, participants metaphorically rebuild what was destroyed, offering a gesture of solidarity and an effort to honor their stories and identities. This piece aims to inspire reflection, reconciliation, and dialogue about the resilience of Native American cultures.
