“I have been drawing from the hills of Wildcat Canyon in Richmond CA for over a decade. Sometimes working on large scale durational drawings made over many months, sometimes catching a brief encounter.

David Wilson is an artist based in Oakland, CA. He creates observational drawings based on direct experiences with landscape and orchestrates site-based gatherings that draw together a wide net of artists, performers, filmmakers, chefs, and artisans into collaborative relationships. He organized the experimental exhibition The Possible at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, and received the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art's 2012 SECA Art Award. Currently, he is engaged as a guest artist at BAMPFA, organizing community based projects.
