"Fleeting Daydreams No.4 | Large Square Abstract Landscape" Painting

Harris’s paintings occupy the liminal space between landscape, memory, and imagination. Working within the tradition of meditative abstraction and tonalism, he creates atmospheric compositions that evoke the emotional residue of place rather than its physical reality. His practice is rooted in a profound affinity for the natural world, yet his landscapes are not observed—they are remembered, reimagined, and, at times, dreamt. Through layered surfaces and restrained tonal relationships, Harris reconstructs fleeting sensations: distant horizons, shifting terrains, and the quiet emotional weight of remembered environments. Influenced by his experiences traveling through the islands of East Nusa Tenggara, his paintings function as acts of recollection and invention simultaneously—attempts to translate what cannot be fully seen or held into visual form. Embracing ambiguity, imperfection, and contemplation, Harris’s work invites viewers into a space of introspection, where personal memory and collective experience converge. His practice continues to explore the landscapes that exist both within and beyond the visible world.
