Solo Show "Into Yonderland" by Lee Simmonds

Kristin Hjellegjerde Gallery is pleased to present the solo show 'Into Yonderland' by Lee Simmonds.

Dream-like, colourful figures appear in theatrical and absurd scenes, caught in an uneasy balance between the familiar and the strange, the comedic and the uncanny. Often painted in a vibrant, fairground colour palette, the works invite the viewer into a world of illusion in which the more macabre aspects are revealed as the scene unfolds before the gaze. For his first solo exhibition Kristin Hjellegjerde London, British artist Lee Simmonds presents Into Yonderland, a playground of painting where each canvas offers a gateway into a new realm of possibility in terms of colour, content and character.
