David King exhibition opening reception at BAYarts
Painter David King uses bright fluorescent colors and expressive paint application to jolt the viewer's perception of candid family photographs. The work allows viewers to reconnect with their own memories. Much of family history is exclusively documented through photography. This allows room for interpretation while filling in the blanks. This body of work transcends the photographic image with new media and humor, injecting the storyline with an alternate version of truth.
