​Dry Land was initiated by Morgan Carmen in the early nineties in Oakland, California as a cassette label for his own noise / industrial / experimental music after being exposed to tape / sound editing and live event production by family, eventually hosting other artists as well for live events and physical releases.

Morgan's involvement in visual arts started with drawing in childhood and developed under the Dry Land umbrella after learning zine / J-card printing, painting / mural work / graffiti / wheatpasting / other street art in the SF Bay, briefly operating in Reno from 2017 and now in Central Florida branching into some concrete statuary designs.

He is self-taught by way of his professional career, starting in textiles / labor / industrial plumbing to warehousing for local music stores to working as a buyer with luxury manufacturers for firms such as Chanel, Hermes and Gucci with some intermittent photo / ad work appearing in such arenas as Better Homes & Gardens and The Wall Street Journal.
