Lyric Morris-Latchaw (she/her) is a contemporary oil painter, muralist, activist, and farmer. She creates imaginative paintings, murals, and art objects to infuse life with beauty, intention, and a deepened, hopeful connection to the natural world. Her work reimagines common plants using whimsical colors and playful, painterfly forms that speak to a communally-thriving vision of the future, beyond the shadow of the climate crisis, the two-headed snake of capitalism/colonialism, and anthropocentrism. She has created over 20 pieces of large-scale public art, and is represented by Midnight Gallery (Cincinnati). She has had solo or two-person exhibitions at Wave Pool Art Center, Indian Hill Gallery, Kennedy Heights Art Center, ROY G BIV Gallery, and more. After nearly a decade of life and work in the Cincinnati area, she is now a founding community member of Little Platte Catholic Worker Farm in Plattevile, Wisconsin.
