Galerie Bessieres, honors the passing of Jane Harris,.

Galerie Bessieres

C'est avec une immense tristesse que nous apprenons le décès de Jane Harris
Toutes nos condoléances vont à sa famille et ses proches

We are terribly sad to announce that our dearest Jane Harris passed away aged 65.
Our deepest love and condolences go out to her husband Jiri and her son George.

Le travail de Jane explore la frontière entre perception et réalité. Elle peignait avec la lumière transformant la surface en trois dimensions.
Son oeuvre entrait dans les collection nationales de France (CNAP) en 2020

Jane's work explored the border between perception and reality, mastering what is surface, positive and negative.
Using light she transformed the flat into the three dimensional.
The ellipse was at the centre of her paintings.
