William Morris (Los Angeles), 2005

Silkscreen on rag paper, 97 x 97 cm (38¼ x 38¼ in). Edition of 55, signed and numbered on verso.

Sarah Morris’s edition William Morris is part of her Los Angeles series, a multifaceted exploration of the city’s architecture, culture, and identity. The title references the William Morris Agency, a prominent LA-based talent agency that later merged with Endeavor to form one of the “Big 4”. Through its abstract composition of interlocking geometric forms and vibrant colours, the work reflects on the structures of cultural production and the dynamics of power within the entertainment industry and the city itself.
