Harriet Gillett’s luminous, layered paintings respond to the rapidity of contemporary visual culture, offering an antidote through reverie and reflection. Drawing inspiration from the devotional aesthetics of Western religious art and the emotive vibrancy of post-Impressionism, her works exist at the intersection of traditional and contemporary forms. Through intimate snapshots of friends and community, layered with symbolic imagery, Gillett bridges personal memory and universal resonance. Her use of materials such as spray paint and veils of colour creates a tension between permanence and transience, echoing the blurred boundaries between past and present, experienced and imagined.
