TEXTURE. MOVEMENT. MEMORY.

My work begins with feeling. I create layered, textural pieces that explore memory, change and the traces experiences leave behind.

BEHIND THE WORK

Creative Vision

I paint intuitively, often beginning without knowing where a piece will end. Layers are built, covered, scraped back and revealed again, allowing each work to evolve through instinct rather than a fixed plan.

I’m Stephanie Harlan, a Tauranga-based mixed media artist. Painting is where I go to quiet the noise, reconnect with myself and make sense of the things that are not always easy to put into words.
