Troy Simmons

Simmons describes his work as an exploration of incompatible binary relationships. He continues to challenge himself by creating unique pieces that expose the stable coexistence of opposites.  Inspired by nature’s persistence to coexist despite the impact we impose, Simmons’ work is a contemporary re-incarnation of the Arte Povera genre. He uses concrete, color fields and organic forms to express his position on the harmonious existence of different entities.

Inspired by the devastating Guatemala City Sinkhole disasters of 2007 and 2010 Simmons has explored man’s inexorable transience and trauma of existence. His immersive mixed media work is constructed to explore both- the wake of disaster but also the persistence to survive.

Simmons’ more recent exhibitions include Art Paris (2015), The University of Miami Museum Gallery (2015), Boca Museum of Art  (2014), Audrey Love Gallery, Miami, FL (2014).
