Postcards from within. Tim artist’ work is quite simply the realisation of the landscapes in which dreams may be played out. He never imposes the narrative - dreams belong to each of us individually after all. He provides us solely with a stage. His raw material is the landscape itself, the night and such lights as he has to hand are his palette.
Postcards from within
The Directors of the Blue Gallery are pleased to announce an exhibition of a new body of work by Tim Simmons entitled Postcards from within.
Simmons has been a working photographer since 1979. A distinguished career in fashion and advertising has perhaps inevitably led him in the last few years to re-evaluate the aesthetics that have underpinned his work to date and prompted the desire to “tell his own stories". Postcards from Within is the result of that process and marks the emergence of a singular new artist.
Tim Simmons’ work is quite simply the realisation of the landscapes in which dreams may be played out. He never imposes the narrative - dreams belong to each of us individually after all. He provides us solely with a stage. His raw material is the landscape itself, the night and such lights as he has to hand are his palette. He shoots what he creates and creates what he sees……And he begs a question: with the first light of dawn, do these places revert back to normal, to be passed by during the day without so much as a second glance?
For Simmons, there is a sense that he is attempting to capture and make tangible something that is largely intangible. He likens it to recording the moment at which you awaken from a dream with the imprint of revelation burned into slowly opening eyelids and the faculties of memory struggling to make sense of it. But what if you could hold on to that place? Simmons pictures do just that. All protagonists have been removed but the setting remains.
