Simon Hadley Attard is a figurative painter, whose works identify with the landscape and visual surroundings of England. Subjects such as whippets and lurchers, the artist’s garden, portraits of friends and family, and the art historical canon all play major roles in his painting process. House flies, pot plants and spiders suggest deeper connections of disequilibrium, as the artist explores themes that evoke climate change and the transience of time.

Simon studied at Falmouth School of Art finishing in 2006 and holds an MA from the University of Arts, London.
