Offering insight into The Advantages of Failure, London-based artist Simon Willems presents a solo exhibition at Vegas Gallery. Motivated by a concentrated contemporary culture and the very characteristics of his own artistic medium — Willems explores the complex notion of reality. Through a series of oil and acrylic canvas paintings, Willems depicts scenes of sheer absurdity utilising topsy-turvy — and often clichéd — cultural allusions as a reference point. Questioning what it is mankind believes to know, Willems throws into disarray the illusions that confront us on a daily basis.
