Meredith Morrison is a multi-disciplinary artist whose practice is process-based and experimental. Embedding within traditions of fiber, craft, and industrial production, she calls upon intuition and meditative repetition to explore the sculptural building of cloth, and the conceptual nature of time, memory, and dreams.
Morrison received her BA in Art + Design, concentrating in Fiber, and a BS in Textile Technology from North Carolina State University. After working as a Textile Product Designer for several years, she completed her MFA in Fiber at Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2021, focusing on beadwork and object building. She has been featured in numerous group shows throughout the US and has presented solo exhibitions with 934 Gallery, SHAG, and Playground Detroit. Currently, her studio is rooted in Detroit, Michigan where she continues to explore the complex overlapping of art, design, and craft.
Her solo exhibition “Dreamwork,” presented at PLAYGROUND DETROIT, centers on the meditative foundations of her practice, where beadwork becomes both method and metaphor. Through the slow, deliberate construction of her “meditation cloths,” Morrison invites viewers into the rhythmic, contemplative experience that shapes the series. In Dreamwork, the repetitive act of beading is not merely a technique—it is the locus of meaning, foregrounding the quiet, accumulative processes through which memory, intuition, and time take form.
