His work, distinguished by its fusion of contemporary digital techniques with themes rooted in spirituality, consciousness and awareness, continues to resonate with audiences and collectors across diverse cultural contexts.
This momentum follows a series of notable accolades that have positioned Simó among the most recognized emerging voices in digital art. He was awarded the Best Digital Art Award at the Qatar International Art Festival (QIAF) 2025 in Doha, a distinction that highlights both the artistic and conceptual strength of his work on an international stage. In addition, he has been named Best Digital Artist in Argentina of 2025 by Best of Best Review and Best Contemporary Artist in Argentina of 2025 by the Evergreen Awards, further solidifying his reputation within both national and global art circuits.
The announcement begins with Simó’s recent participation in the collective exhibition “Portal,” held in Barcelona. The exhibition, curated by Erika Tranchida in collaboration with Aliarte Art Gallery, brought together a diverse group of Argentine artists exploring themes of transformation and perception. Simó’s inclusion in this exhibition represents an important moment of international exposure, positioning his work within a broader European artistic dialogue.
“Portal” served as a platform for Argentine artists working across mediums to engage audiences in immersive and conceptual experiences. Simó’s contribution reflected his established visual identity, blending luminous abstraction with metaphysical, spiritual and inspirational artistry. His participation highlights a continued trajectory of international engagement and curatorial recognition.
First International Solo Exhibition “Fragmentos de Luz” Opens April 17th in Barcelona
Building on this momentum, Simó will inaugurate his first international solo exhibition, titled “Fragmentos de Luz” or “Fragments of Light,” taking place from April 15 to April 19 in Barcelona at Dante Alighieri 157, with the vernissage scheduled for April 17 at 7 pm.
This exhibition represents a defining milestone in Simó’s artistic career, marking his first solo presentation outside Argentina. The curated collection features a series of works that explore spiritual and inspirational themes central to his practice. The exhibition focuses on the concept of the Seven Flames derived from metaphysical tradition, alongside other symbolic representations that reflect deeper dimensions of human consciousness.
In addition, the exhibition includes–among other highlights–artistic interpretations of Jesus and Mary, rendered through Simó’s distinctive visual approach. These works aim to convey reverence, admiration, respect and creative expression, consistent with the artist’s broader commitment to merging spiritual depth with contemporary digital aesthetics.
The exhibition is designed to provide an immersive experience, inviting viewers to engage with themes of light, transformation, and inner awareness. Through this body of work, Simó continues to expand the narrative scope of digital art while maintaining strong connections to traditional symbolic frameworks.
Artistic Vision Rooted in Spirituality and Contemporary Practice
Simó’s work is characterized by a fusion of digital techniques and metaphysical themes, often incorporating elements such as sacred geometry, celestial symbolism, and luminous color compositions. His approach reflects an ongoing exploration of the relationship between technology, spirituality, and artistic expression.
“Fragmentos de Luz” reflects this vision through a carefully curated selection of pieces that emphasize both aesthetic innovation and conceptual depth. The exhibition reinforces Simó’s position as an artist working at the intersection of fine art and digital evolution, where traditional themes are reinterpreted through contemporary mediums.
His ability to translate spiritual concepts into visual form has contributed to his growing recognition among collectors, curators, and international audiences.

Following his Barcelona exhibitions, Simó’s international presence will continue to expand through confirmed participation in major art events across Europe.
