Meet Grant Haffner
Born 1978 in Berkeley, California, the artist was raised in East Hampton, NY. He currently splits time between living and working in Western MA and Northeast PA. Grant Haffner loves the road. His images are inspired by and reflect the country roads, flat landscapes and surrounding water that he absorbs while traveling and exploring the area around him. His signature motif of utility poles and the open road create an original sense of movement and depth to his distinctive compositions.
“My work explores memory, transition, movement and the biological relationship between man and nature. Through linear, dreamlike landscapes, I elevate the often overlooked experience of road-travel to an exploration of the subtlety of light and emotion. I find inspiration in my surroundings during sunrise, along the quiet country roads and waterways of Long Island, and more recently Massachusetts. The straight roads, horizontal lines of the plains, and calm bodies of water that have surrounded me for most of my life have captivated me with endless subject matter. My work exaggerates and explores intersections of sky and the open road.”
