Harry Rothel (b. 1995, Australia) is a multi-disciplinary artist who works across painting and sculpture. His work portrays an imaginative narrative and is mapping ideas of the human psyche. However, it can often be confrontational in exploring social conventions, politics, and the world he lives in. Macabre and extravagant themes run throughout his work accompanied by soft and stripped-down colours that create disquieting images. His use of overlapping themes of joy and horror, with the application of subtle and acerbic layers of stripped back paint construct somewhat eerie pictures that he hopes challenge the conventions of today.
His recent exhibitions include: Paralysing disproportions, Oigall Projects, Melbourne, Australia (2022), Terra Incognita, No Vacancy Gallery, Melbourne, Australia (2021), Toybox Nightmare, Jungles Gallery, Melbourne, Australia, (2019).
