Biography
David completed an MA in Communication Design at Central St. Martin’s
School of Art and Design, focusing on the experiential processes within
democracy. The research project Ballot studied human behaviour within
information structures and considered how the fundamentals of the
graphic design discipline could assist in impeding disenfranchisement
throughout voting nations within the European Union.
David has worked and collaborated within the Graphic Design industry
in Ireland and the UK for the past eight years. David’s current practice
is a collaborative project with illustrator Gareth Proskourine-Barnett
at radical publishing house Tombstone Press exploring the manner in
which the printed narrative is experienced and constructed. Tombstone
Press is a visceral and illustrative examination of urban living and
architecture through a physical interaction with print. The first
publication How Buildings Kill was published in June 2013 with new book
Affectation Correspondence due for release in 2016. David is also a
panel member of the International Society of Typographic Designer’s
Student Awards.
Current Research
David is currently undertaking a Postgraduate Certificate in Education at the University of Greenwich.
