FRAGMENTS
Like an aesthetic archaeologist, Lily David digs beneath the surface of her engaging and visually complex works to expose their emotional and thematic foundations. She explores the tactile qualities of paper to reveal the dynamic possibilities within its rips and tears, the hidden tones and moods folded within its multiple levels. Lily David speaks her own unique visual language, inspired by her passion for the intimate communication that is art.
