Henrietta Harris (b. 1984) is an artist from Aotearoa New Zealand based in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. She has exhibited widely—particularly in Australasia and the United States—and has produced artwork for diverse publications and commercial clients. Throughout her career, her practice has been characterised by precise technique and psychological intensity. She often depicts individuals at the crossroads of early adulthood, in states of uncertainty or isolation—self-scrutinising and scrutinised by others.
A 2018 residency in Iceland encouraged Harris to explore the possibilities of landscape. The surreal beauty of the environment—with its intense effects of sunlight through cloud, across mountains, and on water—allowed her to produce works largely free of artistic deformation and with a distinctly photographic quality. A similar impulse has found its way into her latest portrait-based works, which play enthusiastically with effects of light, focus, and visual stuttering, while retaining a deep interest in the interior worlds of individuals, real and imagined.
Harris is represented by Robert Fontaine Gallery in Miami. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Auckland University of Technology (2006).
Keith Haring (1958-1990) was a renowned street artist and social activist influential in the Pop Art Movement. At 19, he moved from Pennsylvania to New York City to attend the School of Visual Arts, where he began experimenting with street art, notably his chalk drawings in the subway system.
Haring’s art, marked by bold lines, vivid colors, and dynamic figures, reflects New York City's street culture and themes of life, unity, love, war, and sex. His iconic works are widely recognized and have been featured in major retrospectives and solo exhibitions globally, including at the Brooklyn Museum (2012), Pace Prints Chelsea (2012), and Musee en Herbe (2011).
