Dreamlike.
Harrington uses realistic images of people. He combines them with abstract elements. Then it incorporates meaning and a story related to the events unfolding at the time. His pieces have been called dreamlike. With the balance between the senses and then the realism of the characters in the play. Harrington’s use of the smooth lines of the human body. Against the hard and hard lines of the abstract form. It also gives juxtaposition and understanding. It’s a more modern room than you might think. His understanding and use of the combination of the old and the new in his pieces to create a harmony that the viewer can perceive is one of the things that sets Harrington’s work apart.
