“V
isual reality is an ever-shifting, highly individualized experience. In any given moment, what we see reflects our inner state and synthesis of outer qualities—light, color, movement, and space. My exploration of dimensional photographic art represents an attempt to recreate the perceptual experience with its dynamic nature and hidden complexities. In my patented process, I use photographic constructions; a single, often abstracted, image is layered with a clear acrylic subtle grid. The resulting visual phenomenon infuses the image with a sense of dimensionality and fluidity affected by such changes as the viewing angle and light. I aim to combine technology and aesthetics to expand the viewer’s experience of Techspressionism.” Howard Harris has long been fascinated by both visual perception and design. The Denver, Colorado, USA native earned a BFA from Kansas City Art Institute and a MID (Masters Industrial Design) from Pratt Institute in New York. In 2017 Harris was granted a United States Patent Titled Apparatus and Method of Manufacturer for a Layered Artwork, proving his work’s uniqueness and inventiveness. Since then, his work has appeared in many books and publications, such as Contemporary Art Curator Magazine - Power of Creativity Art Book, Masters of Today - Top 10 Contemporary Artists, Artisti di Oggi e di Domani 2 - Artists of Today and Tomorrow and many issues of Art International Contemporary Magazine, to mention a few. He has also been awarded ArtTour International Magazine - Top 60 Masters Award, Accademia Italia in Arte Hermes Award, Socio-Cultural Ea Arte Club Art Olympic Prize, Biennale D’Arte Michelangelo’s David Award, and more. He serves as a Trustee of The Kansas City Art Institute and has won the Who’s Who Worldwide Lifetime Achievement and the USA Small Businessperson of the Year. His work is shown internationally and represented by the United States and European galleries.
