HILARY HARKNESS

BC Library’s Woody Tanger Auditorium

"New York artist, Hilary Harkness, paints finely detailed scenes of off-duty sailors in submarine sleeping quarters, lederhosen-clad art thieves in a Swiss chalet, and Gallic warriors, [...] engaging in what you might expect them to engage in during their down time -sex, mischief, self-adoration, drive-thru fetus implantation [...] Of course, these are not conventional"
