“Occupied: the Art of War” takes a look into the dark world of post-war Japan. Using an amalgam of photographs he took while in Japan, family documents/photos, and publicly-available art, David creates digital landscapes of a country at war with itself for identity and deliverance.
"Apocalypto-Nouveau" dives into the trenches of war and returns with a glimpse of the future. Much of David's inspiration comes from the work of Alphonse Mucha, a turn-of century revolutionary artist from the Czech Republic where David's European family is from. Capture the spirit of the World at the brink of oblivion: Enjoy yourself, it's later than you think…
2011's earthquake and tsunami has shifted David's recent focus to helping the relief effort in Japan by raising awareness and lifting spirits through children's artwork as well as his own: "Tsunami 2011".
