Original artwork description:

For What is an evocative, high-contrast work from Kris Haas’s Of & Being series — a collection shaped by movement, presence, and the emotional rhythms of being human.

With its sweeping gestures of burnt orange, acid yellow, and layered grey, this piece vibrates with urgency and inquiry. Intuitive marks — some raw, others whispering — travel across the surface like an unspoken question. Textural smears, fluid drips, and confident negative space bring a dynamic visual pacing that feels at once impulsive and intentional.

The title, For What, opens space for reflection: What drives us forward? What are we holding, resisting, asking? The work doesn’t answer — it invites.

Collectors drawn to contemporary abstraction, emotional immediacy, and material texture will find this piece rich in presence and longevity. It centers a room while remaining open, curious, and alive.

This is a one of a kind artwork, created and painted by me. You will receive a certificate of authenticity on the back of your painting and it is ready to hang with hardware attached. It is sprayed with an archival coating.
