Two years after Harris completed Untitled 1975 in 1977 he was awarded the Frances Hodgkins Fellowship. Jeffrey Harris lives in Dunedin and has exhibited widely since his first one man show in 1969. For a brief time in the early 1980's Harris worked in the United States prior to moving to Melbourne in 1986, returning to New Zealand in 2000. Harris is largely self-taught, listing notable New Zealand artists Michael Smither and Ralph Hotere as his mentors.

Our thanks to the artist for his assistance in cataloging this lot.
