Harris's work centers on observations of nature and humanity. Because we are elements of society, her work also examines our cultural role – especially as seen in current events. The dichotomy between what we are and how we act is central to her work. This is a theme Harris has approached for some time, for example - her Women of Courage, a monumental and ongoing portrait project that celebrates women who have inspired others to pursue their dreams.
In the Forest is a most current body of work of this interest– an exhibition / installation of large-scale paintings that interfaces humanity and our environment – the emotional moment as we are kissed by nature. 'It is a perception that each of us is unique in the universe– yet shape, form and color remind us that we are elements in nature.'
Andrea's artwork is represented in private collections throughout the United States and Europe, and her paintings can also be viewed at Homey Gallery, Chicago and Gallery H, Three Oaks, Michigan.
