David Ezziddine

Lives and works in Portland, OR, USA

Artist statement

I paint figurative/surrealist works which are filled with symbolism and historical references, both obvious and obscure. I mix the ordinary with the unusual to create a mythology that weaves between paintings; connecting them in a non-linear story whose ending is uncharted.
