Contemporary Artist
“' ... Art is the way in which I digest the chaos of life, without it, I would implode, melting into a puddle like the witch at the end of the wizard of oz''"
Harrie Dearing is an Artist from the UK, specialising in abstract expressionism. Her work has a storytelling nature, exploring the shifting realms of identity and psychology. Harrie’s art is a personal act of Catharsis, by sharing her work she hopes others find comfort in the dark.
“Art is to console those who are broken by life.”
