David Osbaldeston’s work often manifests itself through forms of media which take into account properties of collage, painting and fine print to produce a material outcome best termed collectively as ‘flat sculpture’.

‘Drawing is the basis of everything I do. It is like a hidden language that operates directly out of the nervous system’

In addition to the poetic variables associated with language, the artist finds this process of making ultimately presents a way to interfere with an established aesthetic or pattern of meaning through perceptions of value, class, or identity which has always been a key thematic concern.
