BIO
David L. Phillips (born January 8, 1944, in Flint Michigan) is an American sculptor and site-specific artist best known for his large-scale architectural pieces featuring elements of stone, cast bronze, plants, and, often, pools of water. Phillips, a student of Eastern aesthetics, delves into the magic of nature and illusion. A recurring theme in his work is the intersection of geometric shapes moving through the landscape. Precisely cut stone with sections removed and replaced with cast bronze suggest a bridge between the man-made and natural world. Phillips's nature-inspired forms exist between the eternal and the human hunger to organize.
