White enamel and a little chrome glimmer from the dumpster. Lumber scrap balances in tentative stacks by the curb. Bent sheet metal fractures color across asphalt shingles and ceramic tile. Cardboard softens in the humidity. These discarded fragments — once hidden within walls, beneath floors, behind fixtures — surface, briefly untethered from their purpose. On the grey felt of my table, they become part image, part evidence. I consider what holds a house together, what breaks down, and who tends to the aftermath.

ABOUT HER WORK

This is a retrospective of David’s works. There will be no sales of works, as all works are owned by individuals. These individuals are showing their love for David by bringing his art together for everyone to enjoy.

ABOUT THIS SHOW

He earned a BFA in Fine Arts from East Carolina University in 1982. He exhibited in a number of Raleigh galleries and The Paper Plant. Raleigh Contemporary Galleries became his representative gallery, and he exhibited in several regional art shows.
