David Wiesner
February 5, 1956
David Wiesner has always been intrigued by the sequence of thoughts that precede and follow a captured image. His works possess a cinematic quality, conveying the progression of ideas leading up to and after a particular moment. The patterned wallpaper of his childhood, adorned with rockets, elephant heads, and magnifying glasses, awakened a creativity that imbues his art with a dreamlike, imaginative essence. Drawing inspiration from Renaissance masters to surrealists, Wiesner constructs new worlds on paper, often through wordless narratives that explore the nature of visual storytelling.
