Design Description
William Morris was highly influential in the British Arts & Crafts movement during the19th Century. My Morph concept includes an original floral pattern which is reminiscent of William Morris’s wallpaper and textile designs. The pattern incorporates a ‘Forget- Me-Not’ flower inspired by Morris’s work. The design is intended to act as a tribute to William Morris and highlights the historical influence of his work on the visual arts.

Buy a Morph at Auction
When the Trail ends, the super-sized Morph sculptures will be auctioned to raise funds for Whizz Kidz. Whizz Kidz supports young people by providing the wheelchairs, equipment, support and confidence-building experiences they need, and campaigning for a more inclusive society. We hope to raise enough funds in the auction to allow 100 more young wheelchair users across England, Scotland and Wales be mobile, enabled and included.
