Reviews
Simon Royer is a prolific multi-media artist who creates artworks inspired by the coastal environment. His inherent affinity with the natural world is combined with
considerable creative and artistic talent to produce works which are striking in both their wide stylistic range and uniqueness.
From the earliest fine art paintings depicting accurately realistic representations of birds, to the ethereal, atmospheric quality of the beach scenes, all works depict the almost physical, tactile relationship we have with our world. More often than not Royer’s works contain a story, whether it be an illustration of the Darwinian concept of survival, a visual exploration of the behavioural habits of certain species or a critique of mankind’s depletion of the planet’s natural resources his interest and concern with the environment is overriding. And even though most of the statements that he is visually making may be negative a sense of humour in the detail often prevails.
Royer’s intuitive portrayal of his subject matter and the striking vitality apparent in all his artworks has brought him many admirers and collectors. He works across a wide range of media including fine art, sculpture, installations, prints and photography to produce contemporary works of stunning originality.
Royer has had solo exhibitions in London, Denver and Brighton and has works hanging in both private and corporate collections worldwide, including Cine Aqua-Aquarium Paris. He currently has a seafront studio Brighton.
