Artist David Petrides
David Petrides was born in the Deep South. He spent his childhood playing with Legos and roaming in the woods. He maintained that trajectory until leaving for engineering school in Atlanta, where he majored in Industrial Design. Quickly becoming disillusioned with the artistically stifling world of corporate design,
David threw himself into creative enterprise, training under master chairmaker Michael Gilmartin before starting a furniture design studio. After the 2008 Great Recession, he rebuilt an even better life by developing and polishing his sculpture, metalcraft, and woodworking talents.
David’s artwork is characterized by industrial materials and manufacturing processes, reimagined with splashes of tropical color and whimsical (or disturbing!) juxtapositions. His paintings and sculptures have been displayed in galleries and public spaces from Atlanta to Los Angeles. He currently lives in Las Vegas.
