REBECCA HARRIS – Somewhere To Go – 26 Aug-20 Sept 2019

Nine intense and delicate paintings by Christchurch artist Rebecca Harris which take their impulse from the world she sees combined with the landscape of her imagination.

    

Rebecca Harris graduated with an MFA in painting at the University of Canterbury School of Fine Arts in 2013 after previously completing a degree in Art and Craft Design at the Christchurch Polytechnic. She has exhibited painting and ceramic sculptural works throughout New Zealand. Her work is represented in various art collections, including the Wallace Collection and Paris Family collection. In 2014 she was a recipient of the Ethel Susan Jones Fine Art Travelling Scholarship.

“Her paintings have a distinct surrealistic and fairy tale flavour to them, finding inspiration in the forms of nature and landscape to confect delightful dream worlds.” – Andrew Paul Wood
