Born and raised in Mexico City, David has always been enthralled by the movements of life and our place in time-space. This led him to The University of Southern California to pursue arts, communication, language and philosophy, to further understand his purpose in the ever evolving world of chaos.

Due to his intimate connection to Japan , he then moved to Tokyo, where he has spent most of his professional career learning from the great masters of times past such as Sen no Rikyu, Junichiro Tanizaki, Kamo no Chomei, Yosa Buson and Matsuo Basho whom recall to ancient connections to encapsule the three realms of reality in a single frame.

Thus, Solitude, Shadows, and Transcendence became a steering force in David’s photography. He then applies the Japanese concept of 'Ma' 間 (The interpretable empty spaces) to the temporality of the flow and the shadow that time casts on all living and non living things rendering them into stillness, solitude and silence.

Shadows are simply the absence of light, the force that provides depth and balance to the world of chaos and light.
