Native American Involvement

Lorin Morgan-Richards speaking at Bringing the Circle Together

Morgan-Richards recalls that at school he saw a photo of Custer and another of an elderly man, who turned out to be Miniconjou chief Spotted Elk (Bigfoot) at the massacre at Wounded Knee and says that he felt that the textbook did not give "the full story". ^[20]

In 2004, Morgan-Richards worked at the Southwest Museum of the American Indian while pursuing his B.A. in Cultural Anthropology at California State University, Los Angeles with a focus on Native American studies. ^[38]

Bringing the Circle Together

Main article: Bringing the Circle Together

Lorin Morgan-Richards with his daughter Berlin

Between 2008 and 2012, Morgan-Richards partnered with Native American and Indigenous groups in Los Angeles to establish Bringing the Circle Together , ^{[39] [40]} a free monthly film series hosted at the Japanese American National Museum. The series offered a central gathering place to screen documentaries by and about Indigenous people while providing historical narratives with guest speakers, and art and cultural demonstrations. Special guests included Makana, Saginaw Grant, Douglas Miles, Blase Bonpane, among others.

The film series in partnership with AIM Santa Barbara held a community birthday celebration at Nahui Ohlin in Los Angeles for Leonard Peltier on September 12, 2009, with an update on his status and how the public could get involved to petition his release. Morgan-Richards spoke to a reporter: "This is all grassroots. Everyone's voice counts. The time is now because Barack Obama, our president, had said it's not the president that actually makes the change, it's going to be our pressure upon the president that will make the change." ^[41] The event was followed in December by a screening of Warrior: The Life of Leonard Peltier with discussion afterward by Ben Carnes, members of AIM Santa Barbara, as well as friends and family. ^[42]

History was made at the film series on February 25, 2010, at the screening of Lost Nation: The Ioway when representatives of the Southern Ioway and Northern Ioway tribes gathered with Tongva leaders, making it the first time a meeting took place between Southern California and Midwestern Native American Nations. ^{[43] [44]}

Celtic involvement

Author and illustrator Lorin Morgan-Richards

Morgan-Richards became heavily involved in the Welsh-American community after the closure of the Welsh Presbyterian Church in December 2012.^{[ citation needed ]} Before this, Morgan-Richards had helped coordinate an Eisteddfod at Barnsdall Art Park in 2011. Feeling a need to fill the void of losing the church as a cultural center, Morgan-Richards founded the Los Angeles St. David's Day Festival, an annual event taking place on or around March 1 celebrating Wales. The first festival took place on March 1, 2013. Singer and harpist Siobhan Owen headlined the large-scale event. In conjunction with the festival, Morgan-Richards began producing Celtic Family Magazine, a nationally distributed print and digital publication on Celtic interests. ^[45]

Imperfectualism

Imperfectualism is an anti-art treatise by Lorin Morgan-Richards, using the pen name Marcil d'Hirson Garron, and first published in January 2020. ^[46] Morgan-Richards defines Impefectualism as art that cannot be easily replicated by machine. An imperfectualist looks to slow automation through their art. ^[47] The theme of Imperfectualism is the art of being imperfect. Morgan-Richards used automatic drawing as a means of producing the work where conscious control is suppressed. ^[48]

In several interviews, Morgan-Richards mentioned being influenced by the Dadaists and Surrealists. ^[49]

Personal life

Beliefs

Morgan-Richards considers himself a Spiritualist, stating that:

After a lifetime of witnessing spirit communication and most remarkably of that spirit I have seen firsthand, some in very close proximity, I feel I need to announce my path closely aligns with Spiritualism, or more precisely Spiritism and its view of reincarnation. ^[50] In relation to his art, Morgan-Richards states: My imagination helps see the past come to life as if watching a theater production put on by spirits. ^[51]
