PRESS RELEASE
Continuing his ongoing installation series INTERVENTION, projected, UK based photographic artist Tim Simmons showcases his ethereal large- scale landscapes with three further events this summer.
Tim’s work examines the multi-layered relationship we have with our natural environment. He captures a world that is raw and primordial, and recreates it as something intensely intimate. From Devon rock pools to volcanic Icelandic landscapes, the earth at its most elemental seems to take on a life of its own; the inanimate becomes animate, almost pulsing with a sense of hushed expectation. It is this surreal, otherworldly quality that defines Tim’s work. His imagery elicits an immediate, visceral response, the illusive atmosphere inspiring quiet reflection, and prompting questions about mortality and he fragility of our planet.
Presented after dark on a freestanding 20’x15’ screen, INTERVENTION, projected will be showing at the following venues in July:
