a queer-gothic artist/writer
Gravity's Lost is a video essay that explores themes of haunting, memory and the decay of archives and self(s). The poetic essay appears as a text overlay on-top of an IMVU digital avatar who dances, reads and interacts with objects and ruins that float in a virtual environment, inspired by Sailor Moon's Negaverse, as well as the space junk, remnants of satellites and archival matter that might be left adrift in a speculative apocalypse.
Morris Fox (he/they) is a queer-gothic artist/writer, and an Interdisciplinary Humanities PhD candidate at Concordia (Tiohtiá:ke-Mooniyang-Montréal).
Fox’s practice cruises the haunted house for feelings of community. Words and materials become a net that enmeshes, become a necropolis, a cemetery of desire. He interconnects eco-poetry, self-performance, VR, video, textiles, chainmaille, with queer material research, rubbing against ruins of memory, shimmering with apocalyptic imaginaries.
Fox graduated from SAIC’s Low Residency MFA (2018), and Concordia’s Studio Arts BFA (2011). Past exhibitions include: Regarde! Tiotiá:ke (2023), Sex Ecologies: Becoming Plastic, Stoveworks (2023), Psionic Hope, Astonishing Dream, Trinity Square Video (2023), My Gay Mediaeval Times, Spacemaker II, (2022), Vestiges&Remains, Artcite Inc., (2022), Claudia Hart’s Ludicy, Hyphen Hubs (2021), Gothwerk, Hotwheelz Festival (2020). Fox interned at the Icelandic Textile Centre, Blönduós (2020), and completed artist residencies including NES, Skagaströnd (2019), Icelandic Textile Centre (2019), Artscape Gibraltar Point, (2018). He is a member of the collective QueerSoftOrange.
