In "Reflections (S)," David Kracov translates his poignant tribute to the events of September 11 into the delicate and intricate medium of 3D multilayered papercut. This artwork captures the essence of the New York City skyline, focusing on the Twin Towers, through carefully crafted layers of paper. Emerging from these iconic structures are butterflies, each cut from paper, symbolizing the gentle release of souls and the transformative journey of remembrance and healing. Kracov's meticulous attention to detail in this papercut version creates a deeply moving and reflective experience, inviting viewers to engage with the artwork on a personal and emotional level. "Reflections (S)" stands as a testament to the power of art to encapsulate significant historical moments and offers a serene yet powerful homage to resilience and hope.
Born in Boston, David Kracov studied at the Rhode Island School of Design and began his career in animation with the Brad Pitt feature, ‘Cool World.’ David went on to work with Disney Animation, Don Bluth Animation, Rich Animation, as well as several other studios, before beginning his solo work as a sculptor and painter. Kracov’s vibrant color palette shows up in his unique steel wall sculptures that begin with hundreds of small sketches. David’s meticulous steel work along with his scrutinizing attention to detail allows his sculptures to take on a life of their own, and his famous butterflies take flight. David’s playful and creative works are each a testament to his steady hand and wonderfully unique artistic ideas. His work brings joy and humor to pop art.
