‘If you could bottle the way hearing the word win makes you feel, I’m sure you’d be drunk on it forever.’  – Harland Miller

Miller first found inspiration for his renowned Letter Paintings when he discovered mediaeval manuscripts during his A Level studies in the History of Lettering. With a Pop Art sensibility, the artist uses just one single word to create meaning in his paintings. Utilising bold, saturated colours and motifs through a process of isolating, overlaying and reconnecting, his works offer a sense of depth that deconstructs and abstracts the meaning of language itself.

Featuring hand printed silkscreen detailing, discover the limited edition Win, signed, numbered and dated by the Harland.

Harland has returned to his hometown of York to present XXX – a new exhibition showcasing paintings and works on paper from his celebrated Letter Painting series. 

On display now – 31 August 2025, York Art Gallery will be hosting a wide range of talks, events and workshops to coincide with the exhibition. Learn more.
