ENQUIRE ABOUT THIS WORK

David Cooper’s work is examined inside out, and outside in, through a series of unpremeditated and intuitive processes. The works inquire into a humanity that feels, fears and confronts restriction and control; a state of being often conducive to an abominable sense of desolation and fettered anxiety. These unknown (and unknowable) aspects of the human condition, driven by momentary absences of restraint, structure and control are embodied. Broken happenings, motivated by instinct and random thoughts, naivety and energy are exploited to sculpt the identity of these unfathomable aspects of
human experience.

David Cooper was born in Wakefield, West Yorkshire in 1972. He currently lives and works in Suffolk. Cooper studied Fashion at John Moores University followed by an MA in Fashion Design at Central Saint Martins where he went on to become lead designer and head of menswear at Alexander McQueen. More recently Cooper attended Fine Art summer school at the Slade School of Fine Art in 2008. Works have been exhibited extensively in the UK.
