Tim Simmons is focused on an appreciation of nature and the connection between man and his environment. His large-scale artworks capture the feeling of a place within landscape, natural or urban, interpreting contour and texture in a way that alludes to its deeper, more elemental presence. He creates a haunting sense of atmosphere with lighting in a way that invites people into the space, into a room for reflection. He likes to communicate his ideas and is passionate about sustainability and balanced living. In 2011 his compelling images were shown on billboards along expressways across America.
Tim Simmons was born in London in 1955; he now lives and works in rural Norfolk. During his 25-year commercial career he shot for BA, Virgin Atlantic, Sony, BMW, Volvo, Ford, GM, Hewlett Packard, Harvey Nichols, Reebok, Nike and Adidas. For the past decade he has turned his attention to personal, environmental projects. Tim’s recent work has been published in Esquire, Exit, 125 Magazine and Centrefold. His photographs have been exhibited internationally, including solo shows at Galerie Christa Klubert, Berlin (2008), FAS Contemporary, London (2009) and a Public Art Commission in Philadelphia and Los Angeles (2011).
