Peace ☮︎ Not War (Pink)

Rich Simmons is a contemporary artist based in Brighton. Heavily influenced by the pop- art of the 60's and 70's he filters his inspiration through street-art sensibilities, utilising spray-paint and stencils for work that is as vibrant as it is nostalgic. His art channels the bold and irreverent, inviting the viewer into taboo topics of conversation while his composition is interestingly heavily inspired by renaissance era painting, particularly the Fibonacci sequence, contrasting his controversial subject matter with a traditional edge. Euro News went as far to describe Simmons' work as 'Pop Art inspired by da Vinci'.
