About

Simon Chevalier is a French Artist

based in the south of France, near the Alpes.

Awarded in 2022 and 2023 by the Ministry

of Culture as one of the 100 best french designer.

In contrast to a world saturated with fast,

colorful, and loud solicitations to spectators,

he chooses to present static,

black and white pieces.

Simon creates large-scale, repetitive

geometric shapes to build sober

and precise graphic sculptures always

presented in public spaces on a high stand

in order to give them a symbolic function.

Conscious that society and its beliefs

are based on temporal recurrences,

he draw his inspiration from primitive

and brutalist forms.

Those symbols being invested by all kinds

of fantasies, memories and associations

of ideas, it gives to the sculptures

a spirituality, making them comparable

to instruments of cult and worship.

We all dream of a calmer, quieter

and cleaner future. As light has always

be a guide in the history of mankind

and well aware of the limitations

of technology Simon use LEDs

and electricity only to promote

a new path for our time.
