Simon Wilson developed an early interest in art whilst at school. His latest style is predominantly, but not limited to, acrylic gloss on masonite board. Wilson works acrylic, enamel, and spray paint through hijinx, deliberation and chance to conceive the inconceivable in his painted and sculptural pieces. His work, characterised by experimentation, ambitious abstraction and its performative pulse – which Wilson renders through his pouring technique – is situated in an internal pictorial schema which, most often, represents the elemental and animal worlds. Along with the The Tennant Creek Brio, Wilson’s art was recently exhibited in the “NIRIN 2020” exhibition for the 20th Sydney Biennale.
