Other artworks by Simon Boyd
"Confluencia" is the Spanish word for confluence, referring to the merging of two or more elements—whether rivers, ideas, cultures, or influences. Using vibrant hues and preserving the purity of the pigments, I sought to create a dreamlike landscape brimming with vitality and life. Building harmonious layers of colour was essential to evoke a sense of balance and equilibrium.
Ironically, shortly after completing the painting, devastating forest… fires—deliberately ignited—began raging in southern Argentina, in a place coincidentally named Confluencia, El Bolsón. It was a stark contrast to the vision I aimed to convey—a world in harmony with nature, where equilibrium prevails.

Simon Boyd is a British painter based in La Pampa, Argentina. His paintings explore landscape as a space of memory, transformation and imagination. Drawing on the vast horizons of the Pampas, the subtropical forests of Misiones and the waterfalls of Iguazú, Boyd creates works that move between representation and abstraction. Through vivid colour, recurring symbols and expressive brushwork, he transforms observed landscapes into personal and imaginative worlds that reflect experiences of travel, migration and life between two continents.
