David Dunne’s work manifests in the interconnection between art, nature, science and technology, Dunne’s practice embraces Installation, Sculpture, Photography, Video and Live art. The primary aesthetic is through expropriation, entropy and recontextualization.
His work has been influenced by the Arte Povera movement in making site-specific interventions evolving from ideas of entropy and the human condition. In recent work Dunne has developed an ongoing project on the South coast of Morocco, documenting the social, ecological and architectural structures of the Berber / Amazigh Haha tribe in the region of Ait Tamer.
