Contemporary Art and Personal History in Reykjavík
The upcoming showcase offers visitors a chance to view works shaped by Harris's distinctive artistic journey. Born on the Isle of Sheppey and educated at Oxford and Goldsmiths, the artist relocated to Reykjavík with her family in 2005. Having recently received Icelandic citizenship in 2026, her creative practice reflects decades of exploration across diverse mediums, from early experiments with painting and anatomical studies to later works incorporating textiles, felting, and reclaimed leather.
