Hariette’s work has been featured in solo and group exhibitions throughout Southern California, as well as on the East Coast and in Scandinavia. Her artwork is collected by prestigious private collectors throughout the US and Europe.
Her work is narrative and very theatrical, in a style inspired by her background prior career. Before beginning to paint, Hariette was a renowned stage actress in her native Sweden. She performed in more than 60 productions at Sweden's foremost theaters including the famed Stockholm Stadsteater. She appeared in plays written and directed by Ingmar Bergman, and starred alongside contemporaries such as Max Von Sydow.
After marrying an American, moving to the United States and raising a family, Hariette refocused her creative abilities and passion on the art of painting.
When it comes to her art, Hariette says:
"I search for the core. I struggle, focus and do the work. There is me and my canvas. Memories and thoughts vibrate in the air. I look at it, and it looks back at me. The process probably has its mystique. I strive to achieve a strong artistic statement, and to reach viewers by eliciting a response.”
Hariette is currently working on a series of small-scale nonfigurative paintings.
