Simonida Djordjevic is a Serbian painter of the expressionistic style with theme of nature. Her paintings are colorful and rhythmic. She has been exhibiting since 1988, and since then she has organised more than thirty solo exhibitions in Serbia, Germany, France, Lithuania, Montenegro and Croatia. Her paintings are in collections all around the world.
"A special effort in our recent art is in question, intended to set the picture free, to sail art in patterns of nature, to find wisdom.Personal effort in painting like that, appealing, disappears in the most universal, what characterize each human being. That's the reason why Simonida Djordjevic painting is sometimes brilliant, shamanic, feverishly ecstatic and with exalted temperature, understandable to magicians, children and lovers, because its pulse is wild beating. " Dejan Djoric, visual arts critic
" The one who believe in harmony and beauty of the world will really find pleasure in Simonida's pictures, because they don't destroy, don't threaten, don't proclaim, they are simply - admiring. " Marta Vukotic Lazar, visual arts critic
