James P. Simon Australian Aboriginal Painting in Lucite Shadowbox, Signed.

A vibrant and highly collectible original contemporary Aboriginal painting by Australian Indigenous artist James P. Simon, beautifully presented in an impressive custom Lucite shadowbox frame, creating a striking floating presentation that enhances both the visual depth and sculptural presence of the work.

Executed with extraordinary movement, rhythm, and color, this composition embodies the powerful storytelling traditions of Australian Aboriginal art while simultaneously reflecting Simon’s distinctive contemporary visual language. The painting features intricate dot work, symbolic figural forms, ceremonial iconography, and concentric spiritual motifs rendered in a bold palette of coral, pink, yellow, blue, black, and white. The result is an energetic and visually hypnotic composition that commands attention from every angle.

Born in Wellington near Dubbo, New South Wales, James P. Simon belongs to the Wiradjuri Biripi peoples of Australia. A largely self-taught artist, Simon received support from the Aboriginal Arts Council in 1987 and has since built an impressive exhibition history including solo exhibitions, commissions, publications, and placement in important private and institutional collections throughout Australia and internationally.

His artistic influences include Pablo Picasso, Tom Roberts, Salvador Dalí, and Albert Namatjira, resulting in a style that bridges Indigenous storytelling with modernist abstraction.

The painting is hand signed and dated by the artist, retaining its original gallery label from Richard Sumner Frames Prints & Gallery, further supporting its provenance.

An exceptional acquisition for collectors of Indigenous Australian art, contemporary tribal art, museum-quality ethnographic works, and interior designers seeking authentic statement artwork for luxury residential, hospitality, or corporate projects.
