David Dalziel has been working as a full time artist and designer since stepping back from a position as Creative Director of the global design consultants Dalziel & Pow in 2024.
Inspired by the ground-breaking Mid Century artists Pasmore, Scott, Heron and Nicholson, David uses collage and painting to create a portfolio of abstract imagery that reflects these influences.
The work is predominately monochrome, but occasionally embraces colour with a vibrant expression.
40 years of travel with his agency have been reflected in the work, with reference to African, South American and Oriental iconography.
The artwork is complimented by a series of sculptural, elegant and functional furniture pieces made in American walnut by a skilled maker in Tenby, Wales. The furniture shares the pared back aesthetic of the art. Reducing the idea to its fundamental necessities.
