Stacy Renee Morrison

Bio

Stacy Renee Morrison is a photographer who often forgets what century she is in. As fate would have it, she encountered a 19th century trunk abandoned on a New York City street and embarked on a nearly twenty-year project making photographs about the trunk’s owner, Sylvia DeWolf Ostrander. Most recently in 2020, Morrison exhibited the contents of Sylvia’s trunk along with her work interpreting Sylvia’s life at the Merchant’s House Museum in New York City. Morrison teaches in the MFA Visual Narrative Department and BFA Photography and Video Department at School of Visual Arts. She recently launchedSylvia, a silkscreen clothing line featuring images of Victorian women and ephemera.
