Yesterday Night

David Eric Morrison

Tulsa, OK

​

David Eric Morrison is an Oklahoma-based artist known for his expressive and raw figurative and portrait work. He uses a unique style combining primitive and formalistic elements to create emotional and layered pieces. He often employs a process of scratching and rebuilding to imbue his works with a sense of complexity and depth. With a style that is both raw and refined, Morrison continues to push the boundaries of contemporary portraiture. 

In his latest series, he explores the themes of anxiety, change, similarity, and the repetitive use of images. Each piece is a reflection of the anxiety that comes with change, the sameness that can be both comforting and suffocating, and the impact that the repetitive use of images can have on our psyche. Overall, 'Yesterday Night' is a collection of portraits that seeks to capture the complexity of human emotion through the familiar lens of portraiture.
