Henrik Simonsen Biography

Arresting and mysterious, Henrik Simonsen's paintings of nature are obsessively accurate in form yet almost abstract in composition and hue. Depicting each fine blade of grass, delicate leaf and spindly twig within their natural habitat, they are a surreal fusion between landscape and Dutch floral still life. The significance of colour in Simonsen’s work is undeniable. Often abandoning realism in his pallet, he creates strong contrasts which allow the luminosity of the paint to sing on the canvas, at times giving the feel of a solorized photograph or alien atmosphere.

Recommended Reading
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. In his works, trees are majestic and wind-torn crooked bushes become mystifying; intriguing stories told lavishly with colour that are more an expressionist language rather than a depiction of real nature. Featuring a single tree with butterflies as leaves, Blue Butterflies displays a rich colour palette of silvery gold tones with a range of crisp blues, following up on Simonsen’s direct themes of transition and short-lived moments flooded with light.
