Heart Florals – Zaide Harker

A 2024 finalist in the National Emerging Art Prize, Zaide Harker’s paintings pulse with urgency, shaped by lived experience and expressed through an unguarded, physical engagement with paint. 

A diagnosis of Huntington’s Disease and a lifelong engagement with the disability support community deeply inform Harker’s practice. Their paintings are shaped by both the embodied experience of neurodegeneration and the personal history of caring for affected family members. This layered perspective rejects fear-based narratives around disability and instead affirms complexity, power, and grace.
