Abstract Portrait Paintings by Eric Haacht

Published Jul 6, 2021

British artist Eric Haacht creates expressive portrait paintings featuring bright colours and swirling brush strokes.

“My paintings are essentially about life and death, I think all forms of portraiture are really a way of confronting our own mortality, and leaving something of ourselves behind.”

— Eric Haacht

“The distorted and obscured faces raise questions about our own identity and whether we outwardly project personas which do not reflect our true selves, especially so in an era where social media is so pervasive. But Haacht himself is more concerned with much broader existential questions about whether time and existence themselves are just illusions.”
