Artistic carrier
David Booker's works consist of monumental sculptures and original pencil drawings. His first solo exhibition was in 1983, in the main foyer, Central railway station, Sydney. Since then, he has continued to show his sculptures in collective and solo exhibitions, focusing on the integration of his themes in special architectural urban settings in Italian cities of art and in contemporary buildings.
He also has been exhibiting pencil drawings from that time. The still-life pencil drawings on paper are drawings of boxes and used packaging he collects from recycled rubbish. These found objects are grouped together in different positions before they are drawn.
