CURED

Launching during London’s Frieze week, Plinth is delighted to champion CURED – a solo show by Fleur Simon, curated by Sammi Gale and Emily Watkins, at 65a Charlotte Street, W1T 4PJ, October 13-18.

CURED coincides with Simon’s collaboration with British design institution Heal’s, facilitated by Plinth. The artist and Plinth developed a series of limited editions alongside a new original work commissioned exclusively for Heal’s in response to their Autumn / Winter 2026 campaign.

CURED represents the latest evolution in Simon’s practice. The title itself nods playfully to her signature medium – coloured resins, poured either in layers or simultaneously, before being left to dry or ‘cure’. In several instances here, happy accidents have resulted in a new frothy texture, baked into the works by the summer’s extraordinary heatwaves: their environment preserved, like insects in amber. 

Or, waves crashing on a shore, suspended forever. Simon’s technique results in work that is at once meditatively slow and thrillingly uncontrolled; gravity, tilting and the incidents of one pigment meeting another give birth to compositions that could be microscope slides of human cells on the one hand, riverbeds viewed from airplane windows on the other.

Besides the work’s process of solidification, Simon’s title has another meaning: noxious when wet, her resin not only generates pieces that resemble pathologies, it has the power to induce them. Playfully transposed with art’s supposed capacity for improving wellbeing, in CURED Simon presents work that is both poison and remedy.

Fleur Simon

Fleur Simon (b. 1995) is a London-based artist whose practice explores the possibilities of resin and pigment. Working by pouring and layering, Simon allows the materials to generate forms that move between the bodily, the organic and the entirely abstract. 

Simon graduated with First Class Honours from City & Guilds of London Art School in 2018, following a Foundation Diploma at Central Saint Martins, UAL, and a scholarship semester at Paris College of Art. She completed her MFA at the University of Oxford in 2024, graduating with Merit.

Simon has exhibited at Sid Motion Gallery, London, where she presented a dual exhibition with Sue Kennington in 2019, and more recently at Hannah Payne Gallery and Breakers Gallery, London, in 2025. Her work is held in international collections including the Monsoon Collection and Welbeck Collection, as well as the interior design collections of Soho Home and Studio Ashby.
