David King is a mixed-media artist working in collage and acrylics. His work explores his profound interest in the metaphysical–-the underlying or fundamental interconnectedness of things. In his abstract work, it is difficult to determine if the forms are to be read a microcosmic or macrocosmic; are we looking at a cell cluster or a planetary body? His narrative pieces are created to be visually beautiful, intellectually stimulating, and sometimes humorous. All of his collages are constructed in the traditional, cut-and-paste method and have an obsessive attention to detail.

King’s work has been shown in Europe and across the U.S. He is the recipient of an artist’s grant from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation. He was born in Maine, and he lives and works in Grass Valley, California.
