Sunflowers again, nearly lost to the dark. The pair shows how far one subject can move between hours. This body of work grew from Silverstein's fascination with folk art and found objects, and from the idea of a painting as an object rather than an image. Cotton duck canvas is stretched over pine and cradled in a wooden frame he paints by hand, built as an extension of the work rather than a decoration around it.

David Silverstein is a multidisciplinary artist based in Connecticut. His work explores a personal relationship with nature, vision, memory, and cross-cultural symbolism through handmade objects and paintings.
