David Nilson

°1982, Sweden
Lives and works in Yngsjö, Sweden.

David Nilsons works sets of from a realistic image-world that seems to arise from two different directions; elements of time and the everyday object. In company with these sculptures, as with his moons or icicles, we find ourselves in dreamlike and precarious situations. Sometimes they are site-specific or somewhat hidden, in the corner of the beholders eye.

He's methods allows him to model with the opaque and the transparent. The varied ways he uses resin allows him to create both a present object and a distant image. A sensation, captivated in a trivial item. Reality and fiction at the same time. Or with his own words - As a painting in the air.
