The Space Between: Texture Studies by Denja Harris


  • Oceanside Art Museum 704 Pier View Way Oceanside, CA, 92054 United States (map)

The Space Between: Texture Studies by Denja Harris explores the tension between control and surrender, seeking meaning in the space between what is and what is becoming.

“Through large-scale yarn paintings, soft sculptures, and video, I investigate how texture, form, color, and pattern evoke sensory and emotional responses. Each piece invites viewers to engage with the interplay of softness and structure and to find significance within the undefined spaces.

This work mirrors our collective human experience, an ongoing navigation of uncertainty, patience, and becoming. In this way, absence holds as much weight as presence.

This exhibition is about approaching the unknown with curiosity rather than resistance and using improvisation as both an initiation and a response. Layering and repetition are prominent throughout my work, reinforcing the cyclical nature of change and the unfolding process of becoming. The Space Between is an invitation to pause, reflect, and consider how we hold space for the unknown and, in doing so, how we shape and are shaped by it in return.”
