About
Drawn by the beauty and mythology of the southwest, Carol Morgan-Eagle and her husband, Daniel Pretends Eagle, moved to the art colony of Taos, NM in 1991, where she planned to become a painter. But it was while working as Creative Director and in-house fashion photographer for Blue Fish Clothing, that she finally realized her love for the immediacy of the camera's eye. She now works in both commercial and fine art photography. When she's not pursuing the creative muse of photography, Morgan-Eagle is a singer/songwriter who performs with her husband in their band, Bone Orchard.
Artist Statement
I like to blur the line between what is really there and what I see. My hope is that I stir people's emotions, connecting them to some deep hidden part of themselves. To reveal the beauty, the story, the mystery or even the darkness. I find my muse in all that exists around me, of whatever sparks my imagination and sends me to that place of creative satisfaction. Exploring an alternate version of the world around us. Waiting for that moment when it suddenly all dissolves into a transcendence where the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
This is Carol Morgan-Eagle's first TAAC exhibition
