ENQUIRE ABOUT THIS WORK



Working on several pieces at once, David Quinn’s studio is an intimate, white, rectangular space where small scale, inter-related yet instinctively painted works, hang in line or grid. Each piece a self contained unit, both unique and yet part of a greater whole, as if individual words as part of a sentence, notes in a tune or hours in a day. What at first glance appears simple, minimal and understated, reveals itself upon closer inspection to be multilayered and imbued with quiet complexity, where a unique history is accumulated, built like strata in sedimentary rock. A finished painting is the summary of the process of its creation: a concentrated form or essence, containing both purity and imperfection, each tablet a poetic palimpsest, considered by Quinn as a marker of time, spent in contemplation - akin perhaps to a physical embodiment of meditation or a prayer.


David Quinn was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1971 and currently lives and works in Shillelagh, County Wicklow. His paintings have been exhibited internationally and can be found in collections worldwide.
