Sabine Simons
ABOUT Sabine
My work expresses my fascination with abstraction, combining colour and form, evoking emotion. My inspiration comes from experiencing and paying attention to my surroundings.
After intensely focusing on encaustics, mixed media and printmaking, I discovered that my preferred medium remains acrylics, for it allows me to work quickly and intuitively. How the work will unfold is not always immediately apparent to me. Applying many layers, scraping back, revealing previous layers, and occasionally employing other materials such as inks, pens, and pastels provides me with opportunities to create pieces that contain both static and dynamic elements.
I would like the viewer to approach my artwork with curiosity and be open to a dialogue with it and, since I consider myself an optimist, I hope to evoke positive emotions.
