Simon M Smith
Simon M Smith is a professional artist exhibiting regularly throughout Great Britain and abroad

“Although the challenging practice of abstract painting has been with us for the best part of 100 years now, new work of great individuality and significance is still being produced, and Simon M Smith is, in my view, one of the very best practitioners of his generation. His work is invariably small in scale, using torn paper, drawing materials and soft colour washes to create gentle meditative texts. They are calming, possessing what some might call a ‘oneness’ or an ‘isness’, for they sit quietly and comfortably in their space and offer themselves up as objects of contemplation, leaving us to make our response and decide upon their meaning”

John Gilboy, Orange Street Gallery
About my work
I am interested in making art which discovers or expresses its own meaning, but this meaning is something I then have to respond to. I don’t make the work for its own sake: I want it to teach me how to live.
