In his first collection of poetry, titled Rodeo Wasteland, Gabriel Morgan explores themes of nature and technology, fading wilderness, politics, and life as a member of the internet generation. Long fascinated with placing himself in nature, much of Gabriel’s work stems from lengthy solo camping trips away from the city. Stemming from this same practice, a selection of sumi ink prints taken from Lake of the Woods, Ontario and New York City position themselves as a physical reference point to the work. With a belief that poetry can be a sort of shared map through the cognition of experience, Rodeo Wasteland is meant to create a testament to finding in the contested wilds of our contemporary world.
