Henrik Simonsen
Recent Works | Palm Beach Exhibition
Findlay Galleries proudly presents an exhibition of new works from the Danish contemporary artist Henrik Simonsen. Simonsen continues his exploration of time, memory, and the human experience as understood through his unique lens and remarkable talent conveyed through his exploration of highly detailed and often vividly colored plants and trees.
Henrik’s work is executed entirely freehand. Although his work sometimes gives the appearance of stenciling, this is merely the result of a master draftsman who is as talented with a brush as with a pencil. Stencils would be stifling and deadening. For Simonsen, each work is an organic creation, a mystery unfolding, the end result a revelation even to the artist himself.
“Whether it is a thicket in the proximity of his childhood home or a patch of wild grass on a far-away continent, Henrik Simonsen finds the often overlooked and unremarkable fragments of nature and portrays it in all its splendour.” – Henrik Riis, Eyestorm, 2023
