| Your Personal Biography |
Either prior to exploding or contrusctively detailing, I practice the ritual of turning over the outcome. From its source on the spiritual plain,the energy stored within myself is relinquished to various holds upon canvas, wood, plastics, et. al. The hot juices of color, mulled with metallic and other media forms itself. Strokes and design, varying in source (chopsitcks, screwdrivers, bottlecaps, Q-Tips, wire, gravity,forks, etc.) and mode (thrown, splashed, spat, blown, dropped, melted, exploded, etc.) arrive on or off course.
I am only the bio-mechanical instrumnt that surrenders to and for the concrete objective. There is no pre-intended idea or link as I begin each piece. “Que sera, sera!“ The continued experimentation in different media and surface, using the effects of natural and artificial light, as well as absolute darkness in the cold cell of a dungeon, has produced the works created in this exhibition. The single correlation amongst the works exhibited is...you decide-beyond the color, beyond the form-your feelings.
David D. Sharp, an (un) ordinary guy, attempting to make sense of the mental static life's journey generates, has been residing in the Czech Republic for the last five years. Refusing to cease and desist, he has often found himself riding on the wings of angels.
Coming of Age in Arkansas, Blossoming in New Orleans, and Venturing into the Varieties of life in Asia and Europe, he has centralized and settled with his wife, Veronika, and canine, Grace, in the heart of “Bohemian Rhapsody“. Patient, persistant, and persevering,he abstractly continues the pursuit-seeking that which lies beyond mere color and form. Once asked by his mother, Paula G. Sharp,“baby,-how are you?“, he replied, “I guess I am surviving." Mother's timeless wisdom in reply, “baby, that is not living!“, rings true to this day as he serenely lives life to its fullest. Furthermore, two aspiring quotes he holds peace together with follow:
“People, for the sake of getting a living, forget to live.“ --Margaret Fuller.
“ One day at a time.“ --Anonymous
