About LIANNE MORGAN

On leaving school Lianne began her working life as an Apprentice at a Structural Engineering  Company, she studied for a BTEC and HNC in Structural Engineering. Lianne went on to work as a Draughts-person mainly using the old technique of manually drawing the plans on a drawing board.  In the late 80,s the industry began moving further into using technology and Computer-Aided  Design for all their design purposes but the programs were very basic and time-consuming. Lianne felt that the technology removed the physical aspect of a pen to paper and craftsmanship and that it was being replaced by machines, so in 1990 she took a leap of faith and left her day job to follow her ambition of becoming a professional singer/songwriter. Having been involved in the music scene since the age of 12 she already had a portfolio of work.

She became a professional singer/songwriter, releasing songs and albums in the charts and dance charts from 1992 to 2012.

After many years of traveling and a successful career as a Singer, she settled into a full-time job in 1998 working for a musical development program run by the government called New Deal for Musicians. Her job required her to manage the development of new musicians/ songwriters/bands/ DJs and singers and to provide them with the relevant support and training needed to enter the music industry as a professional.

In 2001 Lianne set up a performance school called Stage C.A.M.P, Cardiff Academy of Music and Performance. She managed and developed many performances, original musicals, and music programs running in various locations within Schools in South Wales. The projects she created gave young people opportunities to write and stage their own musicals under the guidance of professionals within the music industry. The company went from strength to strength and helped develop musicals and performances with over 3000 young people aged between 7-18.

Between 1998 and 2016 Lianne developed and delivered many Creative Art and Music projects for Charities, Funding Bodies, Government Run Programs, Schools, and other Educational Organisations, with the aim of providing skills and qualifications within The Creative Arts and Music as well as improving, Mental Health and Wellbeing.

In 2012 Lianne was diagnosed with a rare condition called Spasmodic Dysphonia, which affected her speech and made communication very difficult and painful. This experience forced her to take a break from her teaching and singing career and lead her back into being a student where she embarked on a Foundation Course in Art and Design with the intention of adding new creative techniques to her knowledge base. Unaware of where this new knowledge would take her, she continued her education and progressed to BA (hons) in Fine Art and then further on to a Masters in Fine Art.

Lianne's development within Fine Art reignited her passion for sound and she began a journey of discovery and research, visualizing sound, and transposing sound into visuals. Lianne says "Word is not the only way we connect or communicate, we are connecting and communicating through a  universal language of frequency and vibration. The negative space is where the networks,  connections, and communications take place, the human eye is not developed to decode and visualize it, as an artist this is my main objective."

Lianne has been able to return to her career as a Singer/Songwriter although her main work is now as a practicing Artist. She continues to develop and deliver Creative Arts Projects and her Studio is based in Cardiff Bay, Cardiff, Wales in the United Kingdom.
