Madeleine Morlet is an Australian born British-American artist and mother. She works in medium format and 35mm photography, using both colour and black and white, to immerse herself in geographically specific longitudinal studies. Her images are rich in narrative and intimate in tone. They employ a cinematic sensibility; portraits, landscapes, and tight crops are used to establish a sense of the characters, locations, and themes within each body of work. Her photographic practice has an esoteric focus, and is supported by research, drawing from cultural hauntology, and more recently paired with creative nonfiction.

Madeleine was educated at the London Film School, and King’s College London, where she studied Filmmaking, and Classics with English. She has worked as a photography instructor since 2018, notably at Maine Media Workshops and the Penumbra Foundation. She is an award winning photographer, with her photography being recognised by PhotoVogue, Lucie Foundation, the Pollux Prize, Julia Margaret Cameron Award, OD Photo Prize, Felix Schoeller Prize, Belfast Photo Festival, Maine Arts Commission, and others.

Her publication The Quarry (2022) was supported by the Maine Arts Commission and is sold out on Photo Eye.
