This week’s artist: Fleur Simon

We welcome Fleur Simon to to takeover the walls and windows of Studio 73 with her epoxy resin paintings. She tells us about her work and inspirations:

So I grew up in London. I attended two foundation courses; one at Central Saint Martins UAL, and one on scholarship to Paris College of Art. I then completed my Fine Art BA at City & Guilds of London Art School, where I worked in ceramics and painting.

Others artists inspire my work. For example, Ryan Sullivan’s material use and Julian Stair’s concepts. It’s great to take your favourite elements from each and combine them. I liked Wolfgang Tillman’s Freischwimmer series so this inspired me to play with depth and inky imagery.
