Artist Biography:
Hailing from Canada’s Pacific Northwest, artist David Wilson’s work has long been informed by the oft rain soaked urban environment he calls home. Whether he’s travelling the globe or exiting through the studio door, Wilson’s experience of his world becomes a celebration of the season of long nights and drenched, reflective streets.
Wilson has established himself as one of Canada’s preeminent urban landscape painters with more than 25 solo exhibitions. His work tends to step away from the literal translation of a scene into something more interpretive and evocative.
Working primarily with acrylics, Wilson’s paintings are built upon multiple layers of light and colour, infused—beneath the evocative veneer—with the notion of what we know and think we know, or remember.

Wilson has established himself as one of Canada’s preeminent urban landscape painters with more than 25 solo exhibitions.

Working primarily with acrylics, Wilson’s paintings are built upon multiple layers of light and colour, infused—beneath the evocative veneer—with the notion of what we know and think we know, or remember. “I tend to shy away from nostalgia and gravitate towards memory. Be it my own memories or something more collective, I’m most interested in those moments we have experienced, or hope to experience, to remind us of who we are and who we will become. I’m not interested in sentimentality. But I am interested in how our histories can act as tools to inform the future we are all moving toward.” – David Wilson SOLO EXHIBITIONS 2022 From There to Here, James Baird Gallery, Pouch Cove, Newfoundland 2022 In From the Cold, Gibson Fine Art, Calgary, Alberta
