HENRIK SIMONSEN

HENRIK SIMONSEN (DENMARK) b.1974

One of Denmark’s leading contemporary artists, Henrik Simonsen is known for his expressive, nature-inspired works that merge drawing and painting. Simonsen sees drawing as the heart of his practice and his silkscreen prints reflect a deep engagement with line and form, each image emerging from freehand mark-making. Nature is central theme in Simonsen’s work, inspired by the Scandinavian tradition of design drawn from the natural world, his pieces explore the richness of flora and fauna.
Simonsen has exhibited widely across Europe and the US, including solo shows in New York, Los Angeles, and at London’s Royal Opera House. His work is held in private and public collections worldwide. He currently lives and works in Berlin.
