Encounter With A Sculptor

David is a British born artist based in London. He is inspired by human and natural forms, often synthesising his ideas with man-made and mechanical components. His work explores a variety of styles in both 3D and 2D and can be viewed at www.davidtwaller.com

From his studio, in North London, he kindly accepted to answer to our four usual questions:

What brought you to London?

It was a job opportunity in the theatre industry.

What is the last exhibition, film  or show that inspired you and why?

The exhibition Gauguin at Tate Modern. I was inspired by his figurative subjects in natural settings, decorative compositions, use of paint and colour, and the sense of `importance` he applied to his own works.

If you had to leave London, what would you miss the most?

I would miss the abundance of culture, and creative people.

Could you recommend one of your favourite place (shop, restaurant , venue...) in London?

I enjoy visiting the Kings Place gallery, cafe, music venue near Regents Canal and Kings Cross station (www.kingsplace.co.uk)
