Kenny Harris and Wes Hempel Exhibitions
George Billis Gallery
This event has ended.
Kenny Harris’s latest body of work was informed by two recent residencies in Tuscany, at Borgo Finocchieto and Monteverdi. Inspired by the heavy Tuscan light, Harris paints the landscapes and interiors of this art-historically rich region with a fresh eye and attention to detail.
He was particularly inspired by the unique architectural elements and imperfections of the Italian interiors. States the artist, “There’s just something about painting a 3-foot- thick stone or plaster wall that has been there for centuries. It’s typically irregular lighting conditions that speak to me. Also, irregularities in construction or details that you’d never see in houses in the U.S. are things that catch my eye. ”
