Her career since graduation has moved through working with friend Jane Chipchase and then starting her own studio. Her still operating studio is flexible in size of staff to incorporate the amount of work they undertake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morag\u2019s approach is rooted in an \u201canything goes\u201d approach and tries to approach every project with an open mind. This demeanour has allowed for easeful work with a wide variety of clients and collaboration on a variety of projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" height=\"453\" data-src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/tolangreyhaven\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13298\/2022\/03\/morag3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-324 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/tolangreyhaven\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13298\/2022\/03\/morag3.jpg 610w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/tolangreyhaven\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13298\/2022\/03\/morag3-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/tolangreyhaven\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13298\/2022\/03\/morag3-129x96.jpg 129w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 610px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 610\/453;\" \/><figcaption>Choo-Choo Train<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Bold colours and flat shapes arranged across huge spans of interiors and exteriors, there is nowhere that Morag sets her eyes on that she can\u2019t find a way to cleverly throw a ton of colour on it. While a lot of the graphics bring what would be stark and unadorned surfaces to life, I find it quite jarring and a bit unnerving in the digital space though. Specifically the photographs of her work and her website. The website almost hurts to look at because it is so bright, and the editing on some of the photos give an eerie quality of 3D representation and not actually a photo of a physical installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" height=\"453\" data-src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/tolangreyhaven\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13298\/2022\/03\/morag5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-326 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/tolangreyhaven\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13298\/2022\/03\/morag5.jpg 610w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/tolangreyhaven\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13298\/2022\/03\/morag5-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/tolangreyhaven\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13298\/2022\/03\/morag5-129x96.jpg 129w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 610px) 100vw, 610px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 610px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 610\/453;\" \/><figcaption>Bold phrases liven up the space.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>What I do applaud the most is the use of every dimension possible in a space, and not just the flat surfaces that are constructed or are pre-existing.
