About this artwork

This image doesn't originate from the external world, but from the memory of it. I work from within, from what remains when reality has long since vanished. The forms don't arise from observation, but from what manifests itself internally as an image. The light is artificial, almost glaring, like a remnant of the present that refuses to pass. It's reminiscent of neon, of screens. Artificial light.

Despite this artificiality, the movement in the… image remains organic. It follows no grid, no geometry. They are morphic fields, traces, transitions that generate one another. I am not interested in the representation, but in the energy that has arisen.

Credentials

Featured in gallery curations
Works on commission

Simon Thon studied at the Ruhr Academy of Fine Arts and subsequently worked in advertising before becoming a freelance photographer. His photographic work also maintains a clear artistic expression. Nevertheless, painting remains his true focus. In his studio, his work evolved from early figurative, realistic motifs to increasingly freer abstraction. He rejects the constraints of a single style and understands art as an open process. His painting thus becomes an intimate form of communication and, at the same time, an instrument for understanding the world and its current tensions. Social contradictions, frictions, and shifts act as underlying forces in his paintings, lending them both emotional and intellectual urgency.
