A. Fitzsimmons

A. Fitzsimmons was born and raised in South Africa, and immigrated to New Zealand in 2007.

She describes herself as being driven by feelings and a compulsive need to paint. Painting is her vehicle, but the expression is her journey. This is no ordinary journey, instead it is a complex image captured through her eyes and imagination.

She experiments with acrylic, taking a playful journey and creating masterful plains of color, almost like building a puzzle. At the same time each little piece, each stroke, is formulating her unique style.

Color inspires the painting or series she produces, pieced together by bold “block like” pattern application.

Paging through books, absorbing nature and it’s plains of color and daily urban scenes triggers her imagination, and music further spurs on her creative process while painting. Her works have been juxtaposed as to looking into the patterned world of Henri Matisse and that of Jean-Michel Basquiat.

A. Fitzsimmons est née et a grandi en Afrique du Sud, et a immigré en Nouvelle-Zélande en 2007.

Elle se décrit comme étant guidée par ses émotions et un besoin compulsif de peindre. La peinture est son véhicule, mais l’expression est son voyage. Ce n’est pas un voyage ordinaire, mais plutôt une image complexe capturée à travers ses yeux et son imagination.

Elle expérimente avec l’acrylique, entreprenant un parcours ludique où elle crée de vastes étendues de couleur, presque comme si elle assemblait un casse-tête. En même temps, chaque petit morceau, chaque coup de pinceau, contribue à façonner son style unique.

La couleur est sa principale source d’inspiration pour les toiles ou les séries qu’elle crée, mises en forme par des applications audacieuses de motifs en " blocs ".

Feuilleter des livres, s’imprégner de la nature et de ses étendues colorées ainsi que des scènes urbaines quotidiennes stimulent son imagination. La musique vient aussi nourrir son processus créatif pendant qu’elle peint.

Son œuvre a été comparée à un monde de motifs qui évoque à la fois celui d’Henri Matisse et celui de Jean-Michel Basquiat.
