Zach_Harris_Manzanita's Maze / Zodiac Harpsichord

A maze-like scene comprised of intricately hand carved elements and a seemingly infinite number of characters dance within the frame of Manzanita's Maze / Zodiac Harpsichord. Pulling from the artist’s own musical background, in this work he depicts an abstracted bird emanating from a linen harp and extremely intricate film reel. Circumnavigate the canvas, the eye moves from the harp on the bottom right through the central striped bird and back down the left side to a zodiac wheel, only to be brought back through the maze structure once more — creating, as the artist describes, “a highly illusionistic and spatial experience.” For Harris, the experience of looking in person is crucial as his work creates, he explains, “hypnotic metamorphoses” which are made up of "subconscious undercurrents, shifts in materiality, peripheral containment, and distortion… designed to change and reveal depending on how you are looking and your distance.”
