Dance (2014)

Victoria Morton’s practice often seems improvised and spontaneous, though the making process behind her work is based on a strong theoretical art understanding. Her work reflects upon historical painting and literature, while also considering notions of the everyday and alluding to the domestic through use of found household objects. The result is a body of work that presents a new perspective of the world around us and the lived experience. Her installations and sculptural works, including those purchased for The McManus: Dundee’s Art Gallery & Museum, project her painting into the viewer’s space and suggest that painting belongs in the real world rather than upon a dehumanised and sanctified museum wall.
