Simone Christen was born and raised near Berne, Switzerland, and in recent years has been living on a horse farm in NJ. Her art has been showcased across the USA and Europe, attracting collectors worldwide. Her intuitive artistic approach captures emotions and atmospheres, seeking balance and reduction without triviality. Her organic large shapes are quiet reflections on life’s beauty and fundamental simplicity. They are meant to provide a grounding experience and exude a sense of calm, peace and serenity - which she believes is a deeply rooted need for most of us in a challenging and complex world. It is an invitation to step away from the hustle and bustle of daily life for a brief moment of reflection and resonance, allowing the eyes to rest and the soul to linger. *** Christen's artwork is currently showing at Miriam restaurant, 140 Seventh Ave South ***
