simplicity - clarity - peace
calm reflections on life’s beauty and fundamental simplicity
How much – or rather, how little – is required for color, shape, and material to reveal their essence and full presence? What defines a form, and how does it enter into relation with other objects and its surrounding space? That said, for me, a form is never mere geometry - rather a singular presence with its own character, inner life, and orientation.
I pursue balance without surrendering tension, and reduction without tipping into the trivial, guided by form, mass, proportion, rhythm, and structure.
My paintings aim to offer a grounding experience, radiating tranquility and serenity while preserving a quiet sense of mystery. Acknowledging that darkness exists in the world, they choose to dwell on beauty and joy, providing comfort, space for contemplation, and a visual respite amid the challenges and speed of contemporary life.
Simone lived and worked most of her life in Switzerland - in 2020 though, she moved to the US East Coast where she now lives and works as a full time artist.
Fascinated by nature as well as big cities she is creating calm paintings that speak to the heart and nurture the soul.
