Durophorm serigraph on nidengen 25"x40" 2001. edition of 20
This serigraph developed from my memories of whale watching, noticing the barnacles attached to them, the rough, durable, tough skin of these creatures. The sea is the birth place of life, and this image is a cross between the organic animal which moves and the static life such as coral.
I am exploring the perception between what is recognizable and the indecipherable.

Reality is not as concrete as we all would like to think, this is one of the issues I deal with in my art. The art I create is part of a visual vocabulary, a constantly evolving personal language. I hope that the realization and bringing to life of my work that is non-mimetic and breaks from the illusion of representation and literal convention. I try to bring forth the indecipherable images, in my mind, into our shared reality.David Sananman is a prolific abstract artist working in various media including painting, printmaking, drawing, multimedia, animation, sound and music.
