Kreg Harrison: A World Woven in Belts
How the renowned artist took an everyday object and transformed it into a sculpture titled Humanity.
At the Accessories Council, we have the privilege of meeting extraordinary creative talents, and our definition of an artist has never been limited by medium. Fashion designers, jewelers, sculptors, painters, craftsmen — we are fascinated by people who can look at an ordinary object and see something the rest of us don’t — which is how Kreg Harrison caught our attention.
Harrison is an accomplished sculptor who has spent four decades “breathing life into bronze,” working directly from life in studios that have ranged from horse stables and duck blinds to athletic venues and mountaintops. His work has taken him around the world, although today he said he and his wife Brooke “divide our time between Edmond, Oklahoma and Glenwood, Utah.”
