Simon Evans – Everything I Have (2008)

Louisiana poster with the work, Everything I Have (2008), by the British artist, Simon Evans, (b. 1972). Here, Evans maps everything he owns through more than a thousand small illustrations of his possessions. The poster was printed in conjunction with Louisiana's major international contemporary art exhibition, The World is Yours, in 2009.

The exhibition, The World is Yours, presented works by more than 20 renowned artists from all over the world, many of whom were presented here to a Danish audience for the first time—among them, Simon Evans.

Evans lived out a boyhood dream as a skater in San Francisco, then started writing and broke through as a visual artist in 2003. Evans works with text-based collages—often composed of short poetic sentences and drawings. Simon Evans captures the poetry of everyday life, to which he can have an ironic distance.
