About the Item

David Borawski lives and works in Hartford, Connecticut, and received his BFA from the Hartford Art School of the University of Hartford. A multi-media installation artist, his work is comprised of sculpture, video, drawing and digital imagery. Conceptually driven, the work reflects upon pop culture, radical politics, art history and the dark alleys of society while also incorporating personal experiences. Each installation combines multiple elements to present visual and mental signs, “clues” that evoke sub/conscious nostalgia as a means to provoke layers of possibilities. The focus is on iconic societal events that have influenced major shifts in our collective consciousness, suggesting connections while exposing them as uncanny precursors to present-day realities. Recent solo installations include the New Britain Museum of American Art, Five Points Gallery, Real Art Ways and EBK Gallery, and has been included in group exhibitions at Galleria Foksal in Warsaw, Artspace New Haven, work-detroit and the 7th Water Tower Arts Festival in Sofia, Bulgaria. This year was awarded the Berkshire Teconic Artist Resource Trust Grant and a Connecticut Artist Fellowship.
