David Walker
Inspired by his friends, enemies and idols and working within the design and fashion industries, David’s visual style has evolved into an eclectic mix. Incorporating paint, pen, mac and material as well as his head, heart and hands…
For Margin David is showing some recent illustrations and a first glimpse of artwork from a new project called ‘NotYetDead’.
Pieces by David Walker will be on display at Margin London in August 2005.
For the February 2004 edition of the mens show, Margin invited British clothing label Subsurface to work their graphic and illustrative magic in the bar area.
The result was an all-encompassing and engrossing sextych representing their artwork which also spelled out the word “MARGIN”.
