Timothy Harding

Artist Statement

This work plays off of and manipulates the foundations of abstract painting. Everything 
from the supports and tools to the elements of painting are uprooted from their traditional 
roles and merged with the methods and practices of sculpture, drawing, and installation.
Works contain references to formal elements of abstract expressionism, minimalism, and 
light and space. Characteristics such as gestural marks, grids, flat paint applications and 
lighting systems act as subjects to be distorted by processes of cutting, crushing, warping, 
and collapsing.
Here, traditional pictorial space comes into conversation with three-dimensional 
architectural space. Resulting works display an ambiguous objecthood addressing the 
beholder on a phenomenological and conceptual level.
