Colin Harrison




Colin Harrison

November 14th to January 9th

Lower level Gallery

Colin Harrison is a native of northern England and he lived for some thirty years in Brookfield. He is an engineer and researcher by profession and a photographer since the age of seven by avocation. Often these two passions have intertwined in the development of scientific and medical imaging systems. Colins intent is to help the viewer see the abstract patterns that are found in familiar scenes and to understand the world in terms of these patterns. This approach is often non-representational and such images are often mistaken for watercolour paintings. He has studied in recent years with Kunio Owaki, Freeman Patterson, and the Santé †e Workshop. He exhibits regularly in western Connecticut and can be reached at cgh260247@aol.com
