Jennifer Leigh Harrison is a Seattle-based interdisciplinary artist and poet working with painting, installation, printmaking, textile, video, and performance. Her art explores the ways abstraction can hold meaning, inviting visceral encounters through the aesthetic. Her large-scale installations investigate the entanglement of psyche, history, and landscape, exploring the relationship between memory, material, and the living world.

Harrison approaches art as a form of embodied inquiry where gesture, repetition, substance and scale move between intuitive abstraction and works grounded in material histories. Using a methodology she describes as archival protest, she transforms archives into immersive experiences, her labor-intensive processes engage social justice, ecological conditions, and the human imagination through acts of witnessing.
