About the art
Artist statement
This work is inspired by the story of the prophet David. where he is a person who is blessed by God and is able to defeat his enemy, namely Goliath where almost no one sees him as a strong and tough person. David's form in this work is depicted by borrowing gestures from the very famous and iconic David Michael Angelo statue as well as the addition of a red camera depiction as a symbol of the current digital era.
This work is a sign of the transition from the traditional era to the digital age and the symbol of the prophet David as a symbol of someone who is smart and tough to face the challenges of the times.
