Biography
David Moore studied at Edinburgh College of Art between 1982 and 1988. He has exhibited in many countries and has work in public and private collections around the world. “I never seek to be placed in any category or definitive artistic context, whether that be formal or conceptual and whilst this can be problematic as an artists, in terms of reputation or recognition for a characteristic–style, it also allows a creative freedom within my practice that I find more valuable”. His work is however underpinned by a set of sculpture-based foundations relating to form, space and presence and he sees his forays into other media and disciplines as an extension of this way of thinking about art. For Moore the work is usually made in response to ideas around place or to events and experiences related to particular spaces.
