"I chose this poem because I believe it touches upon emotions and issues many can relate to in today's world. My piece is an adaptation of the ugly duckling's concept. "We're Out There," references aliens, and implies that those who are different, are not alone. Many colorful beings live amongst the monotonous shades of grey. Ducklings are used to pay homage to the fact that this poem's thoughts and message come from the hearts of children."
David's work is about allowing chance and organic origins to inspire more controlled and planned actions. Color and line are meant to bring a meeting of both abstract marks and potentially recognizable imagery.
