Today, we had the honor to welcome the talented artist Simone Theelen in our gallery, where her latest collection is on display across both of our exhibition spaces.
Simone's artistic journey is nothing short of inspiring; making a late yet significant shift from a career as a sports teacher and physical therapist to the vibrant world of art at the age of 37. Her story serves as a reminder that it’s never too late to pursue one’s passion.
Simone's work pulsates with a dynamic rhythm, characterized by her powerful use of color and a profound drive for movement. Each piece reflects her philosophy of life: a willingness to embrace innovation and reimagine what art can be. Rather than adhering to traditional notions of right or wrong, she approaches creation with a focus on discovery and exploration, resulting in art that is as lively as it is thought-provoking. Simone's creative process involves the incorporation of diverse materials, such as corten steel, leather, and pigments, allowing her to continuously reinvent her style.
Nestled on the border between Goirle and Poppel, her studio and gallery echo with the vibrancy of nature, a fitting backdrop for her expressive work. The relationship between her art and the environment is evident, as she draws inspiration from her outdoor adventures. Remarkably, in the past year, Simone embarked on a personal journey of resilience, cycling 3,500 kilometers solo through Spain, camping under the stars, and relying on her strength and creativity to navigate the challenges of the road.
As you step into our gallery, you will experience an explosion of colors and materials that showcase Simone Theelen's boundless creativity and passion for artistic expression.
Her works invite viewers to not only appreciate the beauty of color but also to feel the energy and enthusiasm that she pours into each creation. This collection embodies her love for life and the joy of constant reinvention.
Explore her remarkable new collection presented in our galleries—each piece offering a glimpse into her adventurous spirit and relentless passion for art.
Join us in celebrating Simone's journey and the vibrant energy she brings to the art community. Her work is a true testament to the belief that creativity knows no bounds, and we are excited to share it with you!
