David Carlson
"Through work I continually search for a voice that embodies hidden qualities. Process is the structure. Every time I ask a question something happens. What is the nature of reality? Mine is not to dissect and explain but to experience and reflect. What is the nature of mind? The aesthetic of the work carries my voice and with time echoes the process. What is consciousness? Connection rather than the separation. It is about pure experience that connects me with something I can’t define but beckons attention."

David Carlson works as an artist, teacher and community activist. His work embodies beautiful and complex abstract painting to equally deliberate and meditative video works. Since 2000, he has collaborated with composers, musicians, poets, artists and dancers for video projects that embrace humanistic and environmental concepts that are individual to international in scope. Carlson has consistently made pieces that have a unifying, spiritual quality. He has engaged in artist exchanges with Central Asia, West Africa, and North Africa, Europe and South America. His video works have been exhibited in the Pretoria Art Museum Pretoria, South Africa, the Itturria Foundation Montevideo, Uruguay, Musee Des Tapisseries Aix en Provence, France, Tutun Deposu Istanbul, Turkey, John Cabot University Rome, Italy, Dakar Bienale Dakar, Senegal, Wichita Falls Museum of Art Texas, DCAC Washington, DC, and the Arlington Arts Center Virginia.
