David Richardson
Myth of Progress (AI) No. 2

About the Item

David Richardson Myth of Progress (AI) No.2 60 x 50 in Oil Paint David Richardson’s paintings reinforce myth as the universal blueprint we all live by. His work is a visual journal seen through the lens of Jungian archetypes, mythology, and symbols. Love, combat, religion, uncertainty, celebrity, and confusion at cultural fault lines inform Richardson’s work. Taught by his mother and brother, both artists, his medium ranges from oil and acrylic on canvas, to charcoal on paper, to buckshot applied to corrugated tin or plywood with a 12-gauge shotgun. From portraiture to abstraction, he reaches across art forms to express the pressure of the past and the vacuum of the future that myth captures. In work inspired by Homer, symbols garnered from his travels, and the emerging impact of Artificial Intelligence on mankind, Richardson claws at the unyielding and necessary grip myth still holds on a globalized and capitalized world.
