Simon Naish’s work is a hybrid of pop art sensibilities and narrative figure painting, exploring the intersection between traditional painting techniques and contemporary forms of representation.

His large scale canvases are mock-epics, reflecting a broad range of influences from literature and mythology to more contemporary visual sources. Abstract elements are combined with the figurative and playful images of innocence are cast against a backdrop of bodily motifs and themes of violence, dispossession and discord reflecting a sense of menace and unease.
