Study for a Mould in the Form of a Processional Banner

In this work by Enrico David, a enigmatic and formally ambiguous image emerges, blending the ceremonial weight of processional tradition with the artist's characteristic interest in psychological and bodily transformation. The composition suggests a figure or form suspended between states — at once a template, a skin, and a ritual object — inviting reflection on how identity and meaning are shaped, cast, and carried. David's layered approach to mark-making and shape creates a sense of something simultaneously incomplete and deeply charged.
