Abstract

Excerpt from essay/interview: Simon's work encompasses the practical life of operating, of driving, of using electrical devices, of being surrounded by sprayed, machined finishes and of the faceless facades of machines that evoke nothing but efficiency and ease. The eclectic epistemology of these works fuses the Minimalist aesthetics of artists like Donald Judd, the factory ethos of contemporary design and the anodyne whiteness of Formica.
