David Atwood 個展
2016.5.19 ~ 5.29

My work draws significantly upon my immediate surroundings, lifting shapes and colours from things as mundane as my favorite shirt to something as grand as the mountains rising from the sea of Japan. Combinations of the plastic and artificial with the natural and organic occur as the end result of a long process of chewing, digesting and ultimately externalizing my reactions to my daily environment. The landscape surrounding me, both man made and natural, composed of objects both permanent and purchased are all components of what eventually makes it onto the paper or canvas. A rigorous, yet playful, engagement with colour, mark making, and materials is applied to both quick, energetic improvisations as well as to longer, slower and more composed works with the sole aim of conveying that which cannot be expressed by any other means.
