outsider art
Los Angeles-based mixed media artist David "Spooky" Harris’s work is renowned for defying conventional boundaries with its captivating blend of humor, wit, and the macabre. Transitioning from a background in theatre and television, he has become a prominent figure in the dynamic art scenes of Los Angeles, New York, and Joshua Tree, where he invites audiences to embrace the unconventional and find humor in the darkness. Spooky’s distinctive black-and-white pieces, which skillfully blend pop culture with irreverence, are juxtaposed by striking large-scale ultra-bright abstract figuratives. Recently featured on the cover of South Bay Magazine, Spooky was praised for already making “an indelible mark on the canvas of contemporary art.”
24 Hour Residency at Dorado 806
Curated by Meghan DeRoma and Amelie Laurice
Dorado 806 Projects is thrilled to present Spooky Harris’s “Sleepless” as our inaugural 24-Hour Residency Artist in Residence.
Spooky will receive the keys (read: the walls) to the gallery at noon on Friday, and he will have until noon on Saturday to create a show that opens at 6p. (He gets a few hours to nap, it’s only fair, right?)
Humans have a wildly varied relationship with time. Hustle culture pushes and meditation practice pulls. Whether we decide it or go for a ride, we can bend time or bend to its will. The days are long and the years fly by. And this is all a construct that we adhere to, abide by, relate to, succumb to. But what if we could wield it? What magic is to be found in joining in the play of time?
Spooky Harris will show us what is possible on July 27th. RSVP HERE
