MORGAN FAULDS PIKE

Morgan Faulds Pike graduated with a bachelor's Degree in Fine Art, in sculpture, from the School for the Arts at Boston University. Until 1981 she was employed as a cabinet maker, designer draftsman, and sculptor for C. B. Fisk Pipe Organ Builders in Gloucester, Massachusetts. Self-employed since 1981, she has completed over twenty-eight private and public commissions in wood, bronze and stone. She has designed and hand-carved sculptural facades for more than a dozen pipe organs, the largest of these commissions for the thirty-five foot facade of the organ at the Littlefield Residence Hall in Portola Valley, California, involving more than two years of work and including the carving of life-size male and female figures from solid blacks of walnut wood.

Morgan has created an elaborate sculpture in wood for a twenty foot high baptismal font for the House of Hope Presbyterian Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, and was noted as the first woman artist to have been commissioned by the Chapel at Trinity College, Hartford, Connecticut. Recently, Morgan carved panels for the facade of a Fisk organ for a new concert hall in Yokohama, Japan.

Morgan has been commissioned by the Gloucester Fishermen's Wives Association to build the twelve foot bronze and granite Gloucester Fishermen's Wives Memorial for the boulevard waterfront in Gloucester, Massachusetts, joining the Fishermen's Memorial, "The Man at the Wheel" sculpted by Leonard Craske in 1923.
