Tate Harmer is a self-taught artist working in surrealism. His work centers on the creation of creatures that embody innocence, emotion, skepticism, and awkwardness—figures that confront the viewer and invite questions rather than answers. Harmer disregards traditional technique, embracing mistakes and intuition as part of the process. Building emotionally driven compositions. The work is unplanned and guided by instinct, music, and self-examination, with the resulting creatures serving as companions and reflections of internal states.
