BioMorganna Magee is based in Melbourne, Australia, living and working on the unceded land of the Bunurong/Boonwurrung people of the Kulin Nations, the foothills of the Dandenong ranges. Her practice explores human relations to the more-than-human world using traditional photographic practices in non-traditional ways. In 2022 she published her debut monograph “Extraordinary Experiences” with Tall Poppy Press. The book was nominated for Australian Photobook of the Year and was listed as one of the top photobooks of 2022 by both Gabriela Cendoya and Robin Titchner. Enjoying the process of bookmaking so much, Morganna joined Tall Poppy Press with Matt Dunne and has since published “Beware of People Who Dislike Cats” in 2023. In addition, “Phenomena” a collaboration with Italian publishing house Origini Edizioni was launched at Polycopies, 2023. Her work has been awarded and exhibited both nationally and internationally recognised by institutions such as The British Journal of Photography, The National Portrait gallery Australia and Miami Art week. She is regularly commissioned for editorial and large-scale community arts projects. Her images have appeared in The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Guardian, The Age, Art and Australia magazine amongst others. Morganna is the Major Discipline Co-ordinator for Photo Media, at Swinburne University of Technology and is currently undertaking her Ph.D 'Not Tame Enough' which questions how colonial photographic practices have misrepresented the Kangaroo.
