Born in Dresden in 1970 Simo Inspired by the hip-hop scene, he began painting the facades of his hometown as a graffiti sprayer in his youth. The beginnings of his art are illegal graffiti in the GDR.

has for years Simo further developed his artistic expression and created an extraordinary visual language of naturalistic painting. His pictures show abstract forms, arrows and cylinders in bright colors, presented in a three-dimensional and detailed way. At first glance, one would think of these works as typically abstract paintings; but they are not. Simo is not only a painter, he also builds installations, sometimes smaller objects and sometimes entire rooms. And it is precisely these sculptures that form the basis of his paintings. These images deal with a comprehensive view of art and a look at the connections between the different levels of representation.
