Soft, rounded organic shapes evoke the ephemeral and almost alien life of the sea. Harper’s "beings" mimic marine organisms and ecosystems, with forms grouped together in a small reef-like colony. Her drawings transpose these structures onto a flat plane, focusing on geometric swathes of opaque color and clean, strong lines.

Harper is inspired primarily by the sea life and ecosystems of her hometown on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Comb jellies, snails, urchins, barnacles, and oysters inform her visual lexicon. Harper highlights the delicate balance between humans and nature.
