    Evan L Morse

    Sculptor


    Born 1987 in Boston, MA, Evan Morse is a graduate of Boston University (MFA) and Wheaton College, MA (BA). Interested in the narrative capabilities of figurative art, Morse has devoted time to learning traditional sculpture techniques, including study in Florence and Carrara, Italy. He is the recipient of two grants from the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation, a 2017 fellowship from the Massachusetts Cultural Council and a 2021 St Botolph Club Foundation Emerging Artist Award. Morse was recognized for his work in relief sculpture by the National Sculpture Society, receiving the Dexter Jones Award in both 2018 and 2023. Morse maintains a home base in Newton, Massachusetts, while occasionally working in Carrara, Italy or at the Carving Studio in West Rutland, Vermont.

    With experience in public and private projects, Morse welcomes inquiries about commissions. More information about Evan's commissioned work can be found at goathousestudio.com
