The Eyes of Sharbat Gula

Wanderlust is an international group exhibition inspired by travel, far-away places, adventurous experiences and fascinating destinations. Participating artists were given identical postcards and asked to create a unique piece for the show inspired by the theme “wanderlust”. Travel via boat, plane, foot, and yes, even jellyfish to your favorite destination in this eclectic and imaginative exhibition!

Simona Candini was born in Bologna, Italy where she graduated at the Academy Of Fine Arts University.

During her years studying at the Academy she had the opportunity to exhibit her artwork at many art shows.

Simona spent four years across USA where she started offering her original paintings to collectors from all over the world directly through her online shops and art galleries.

Since 2010 Simona is working as a full time artist primarily within the pop surreal genre. 
Her works embody a beautiful yet sometimes dark world inhabited by big eyed girls and improbable creatures. With a stirring of emotions translated onto each new work of art, Simona brings her love of the old fairytales and childhood imaginings to us in a unique and poetic way. She is a traditional artist and enjoys using acrylics, oils, watercolor, graphite and pencils.
