ABOUT
Cat Morris Jones (she/her), is a filmmaker and fine artist. With a concern for the physicality of a medium, her work takes root in analog video and research-developed processes. Most inspired by art history and humanistic studies, Cat is continuously doing research and writing on experimental film making, contemporary practices, and film history.
Throughout her practice as an artist she focuses on the processes of mediums as methods able to convey emotion (and the dissection of feeling). She ties in her research and writing about spatialized experience into her art, inspired by this human phenomena, abstract visuals, experimentation, and process based forms of making. Cat creates a cohesive voice throughout all the mediums she works in, pouring intention and meaning into the process behind a final piece and highlighting the journey of it’s making. A few recurring characteristics make cat’s work distinctively her own: muted color palettes, strange creature characters, a nurturing of analog techniques, an emphasis on physicality, and stark contrasts between high intensity and simplicity.
Cat attended the Baltimore School for the Arts as a student in the Film and Visual Storytelling department. In 2026, she will graduate from the Maryland Institute College of Art where she studied film, general fine arts, and humanities / art history. Her work has been shown in local, underground, and student film festivals and exhibitions, including the Pebbles Underground Film Festival, where her film Stone Picking, Rock Spirals was given the Audience Award; New Works, in Baltimore; and a handful of MICA’s juried exhibitions.
