A very graphic image of a fractured divided Africa, surrounded by barbed wire, the children try to survive, and looking longer,is the hand a severed hand... all will be revealed
When David delivered his profile I asked him for an explanation of the picture but as I suspected it is for you the viewer to decide. The hand is not severed though but could be asking or giving. David is a follower of Graham Sutherland who also studied at Goldsmith's.
David studied at Goldsmith's College School of Art, London
Taught in England and regularly exhibited and sold his work there.
Arriving in France in 1991, he continued to work, and has had his pieces shown in Toulouse, Bordeaux, Montauban, Moissac and regularly around Tarn et Garonne.
His pictures are produced using ''mixed media'', silk screen, collage, wax and water resists etc.
Always starting fom direct or remembered or observed material, the receiving surface takes on progressive developments to reach the final image.
David is presently moving house and studio to Varen but till he has new contact details can be contacted at
