More details:
The concerns of British painter Jim Harris focus on space and playing with the viewer’s sense of space. One reason for the peculiar aura of his pictures may be that they all are painted en pleine air, right in front of the subject. In our media-saturated world, where photography reigns supreme, this method seems almost touching, but it has direct consequences for the impact of the pictures. Harris paints with fast, precise brushstrokes and the canvases bear the traces of this battle under the elements.
Jim Harris is a painter interested not in content or motifs, but in the process of painting. |
