About the Artist
Take Flight” Zebra Gallery April 2025 Easton,MDDave Dunn repurposes tools of industry such as bike gear mechanisms, auto parts and a variety of fabricated steel components to use in his sculptures. His deft ability to combine steel materials with movement and whimsy enables him to capture the constant ebb and flow of the natural environment, to give life and personality to his various “critters”, and to create abstracted visions of natural forms for the observer.
He constructs imaginative primordial creatures out of anything that lands at his feet and fingertips…sometimes scrap metal, chains, nuts and bolts, forks and knives, wrenches and rebar. As his sculpture works bring to life surreal interpretations of the creatures all around us in nature, his collectors install them both indoors and out in gardens and on decks and patios.
Studios of Key West Show
See the video of Dave Dunn’s “Gone Fishin”, a 17 piece exhibition of his works at the Studios of Key West for a second time during March, 2024.
With the Exhibition, Dave takes modern steel implements and repurposes them into a diverse mix of aquatic life that calls the ocean home. Mixed with a variety of bright colors and imbued with a dose of whimsy, these creations serve as a source of curiosity for the viewer to contemplate the fascinating and mysterious life these beings live.
