Simon Fensholm’s Expressive, Uninhibited Scenes

by Andy SmithPosted on

From Simon Fensholm’s distinct, swirling strokes, vulnerable portraits and scenes emerge. The oil painter, based in Copenhagen, creates works that are both expressive and observant, finding a humanity in their otherworldly forms.


“Fensholm´s work presents itself as an investigation of the constructed authenticity and the controlled chaos that, like a life jacket, permits us to float on top of the imperfect and vulnerable. It points out what makes us perishable creatures. The paintings are like an expressive documentary which creates a coherent voyeuristic portrait of the modern human being and its time where an understated fragility and poesy hide just underneath the surface.”
