Simona Prives’ Timewaves is a mixed media animation combining specific video, multiple forms of printmaking, watercolor, collage and drawing In collaboration with Ross Williams, sound designer.
Simona Prives is an artist, designer and educator. Simona makes work that is about locating ourselves in the built and natural environments at this particular moment in history. She creates collages that focus on the process of decomposition and reconstruction, the dialectic of growth and decay, and that examine our complex relationship between the organic and the man-made.
To make each collage, she draws, disassembles and reconfigures maps, geological patterns and industrial imagery to breed new worlds that are at once familiar and abstract. Every artwork combines multiple forms of printmaking, using fragments of screen-prints, monotype and found material to assemble the composition.
