About this artwork
Regarding sculpture, Sheldon seeks to channel hidden, cosmic forces, at play in the universe around us, into concrete form and expression. He says,”To work in three dimensions consciously is an enthralling experience, akin to creating ‘spatial music’.Often, I prefer to use what I call a ‘NASA aesthetic’, forms influenced by the immaculate instruments of space exploration.” With the scientific approach, Humanity’s search for meaning in the Cosmos…
involves direct exploration in the outer world. As an artist, Sheldon’s approach is on a more metaphysical level, allowing questions to stay alive in the work, as he explores the aesthetics of space and time. Exploration of the concepts of Beauty go hand in hand with the acquisition of Knowledge.

« My goals in art-making are exploring the nature of who I am, and my relationship to the world. »
At age nine, American painter and sculptor David Sheldon was hospital bound after a major operation and was given his first oil-painting kit- he hasn't stopped making art since. The theme of Sheldon's sculpture work revolves around the question, "Who am I, and what is my relationship to the Infinite?" Regarding his paintings, Sheldon works intuitively, and likes to constantly question his methods. Sheldon't futuristic steel sculptures and abstract expressionist oil paintings are fluid, bright, and intriguing.
