About this artwork
This piece is formed from 4 separate canvases which coalesce to create one large piece. It is backed by board and situated within a white wooden frame.
David OM's skyscapes and telescopes communicate a huge sense of scale. Observatories ogle upwards like giant eyeballs, and miniature figurines gaze outwards through trompe d'oiel windows - created by the frame that stretches the canvas. Showing us the back of the canvas in this way suggests that… the image lies somewhere in the infinite yonder.
There is a sense of dignified Zen-like detachment to much of David Ohm's work, many of his compositions function through minimalism and juxtaposition clarified through studious and critical practice. At the core of his work oscillates a pure sense of wonder alternating with a cold nihilism. His art often interacts with space science and astronomy whilst incorporating a metaphysical subtext that enables subject matter to assume new (often existential) symbolic meanings.

« Essentially I am drawn to the power of vastness and the context of the wider picture; the compelling journey from that which is constricted within to the cusp of the infinite. »
David Om is an exciting British artist whose work has been widely exhibited throughout the UK. Exploring a range of themes including the intensity of urban life, the info-chatter of the internet age and the coexistence of nihilism and wonder, he creates striking paintings marked by minimalist compositions and masterful manipulation of scale and perspective.
