Henrik Simonsen
1976
Danish artist Henrik Simonsen engages with a Western tradition of flower paintings and still life, approaching it in a contemporary way. His charcoal drawings and paintings depict the unspoiled common field plants and flowers, rather than the cultivated blooms usually found in traditional flower paintings. Simonsen’s Scandinavian background is stylistically evident in his economy of colour, line and use of space and light, along with the dominance of nature as the subject matter. Although delicately beautiful, these botanical observations are more than merely decorative, taking on an intimately personal element through their skilful, almost spontaneous execution. Simonsen currently lives and works in the UK but has exhibited internationally in London, New York, Copenhagan and Venice.
