About Haris

When Haris is painting, it´s intense and fast with many layers and different techniques, often on several paintings parallel. He works on canvas with palette knife, brushes and even his fingers to get the right feeling. The paintings have an abstract approach to the running of the urban environment and nature with a sense of interwoven dystopian image.

Haris has a studio in Boca Raton, Fl. where he makes his art. Colors and images retrieved unconsciously from what he sees around him. He finds great inspiration in movies, music as well as other artists such as William Turner, Gerhard Richter and Jackson Pollock.
