Madeleine Mae Morris

Visiting Professor, Photography


Madeleine Mae Morris was born in New York City in the year 1992, and soon after was dragged kicking and screaming Upstate to a tiny village called Homer. She attended Rochester Institute of Technology and Bennington College, specializing in Fine Art Photography, and received her BFA in 2015. In 2023, she received an MFA in Photography + Film at Virginia Commonwealth University and was awarded the Postgraduate Teaching Fellowship at VCU the following year. Madeleine continues to expand her interdisciplinary practice, interweaving her work in photography, filmmaking, glassblowing, craft, painting, and bookmaking -- focusing on themes of memory, loss, temporality, and their inherent contradictions. Her work has been shown nationally and internationally, most recently in Richmond, London, and Tromsø.
