David Kenney is an artist based in the North East of England whose practice combines painting, sculpture, installation, writing and digital media to construct speculative worlds.
Working under the ongoing framework of The Constant State, Kenney creates paintings, sculptures, installations and archival material that resist fixed points in time. Borrowing the visual language of architecture, archaeology and scientific collections, his work presents objects as evidence untethered from conventional histories, inviting audiences to construct their own temporal narratives.
His background in architecture informs a precise material language that combines geometric painting, cast sculpture and fabricated objects with narrative environments and immersive installations. Rather than existing as individual works, these pieces form interconnected systems that unfold across exhibitions, publications and digital platforms.
Recent projects include Vanbrugh Perspective, The Curse of Morozov’s Cube (SOMA) and the ongoing development of The Constant State.
