Book Description:
|
'Swamp Op' combines evenly pitched opposites. Pulling these poles into their 'Swamp Op' unity is the work of Brent Harris, an artist whose obliquely figurative prints, paintings and drawings spin around an endless mutation of forms that give pictorial voice to layers of personal, sexual, existential and biological trauma we experience as humans. All of which unfolds within a keen awareness of the inevitable point of death which awaits us.
