David Datuna (Georgian: ?????? ??????) (born February 10, 1974, Tbilisi, Georgia) is a Georgian-born American artist living in New York City.
He is known for the Viewpoint of Millions series which explores the sources and meaning of cultural identity from each unique point of view.Datuna's signature technique in Viewpoint of Millions is a network of positive and negative optical lenses suspended over a large-scale layered, collaged and painted image.
The mixed media palette often includes photography, newspaper articles, magazine clippings, paint and color.
The prismatic surface both hides and reveals the work below, while the lenses symbolize individual identity, illusion, perception, fragmentation and unification.
Portraits, flags and icons are recurring themes within the Viewpoint of Millions series.Datuna's works have been exhibited in Europe, Russia, China and the United States.
