David Sweeney is a multidisciplinary artist based in Austin, TX.

The skull and angel images in his work are taken from the sketchbooks he keeps and personal photographs revisited again and again.

A lament is a cry of sorrow and grief; it is regret; it is the expression of grief - as be here, it is a prayer. The use of stamps, stencils and ransom-letter cut-outs make the images cogent and uniform; they are coded, accessible and empty. The process is thoughtless and 
repetition strips the word of meaning.

They could say anything.

David studied sociology and history at the University of Texas at Austin and a has a long background in public health, thought leadership, training and facilitation.
