His photographs examine how belief systems—political, religious, and cultural—shape the built environment and, in turn, influence how we move through the world. From monuments and government buildings to evangelical megachurches, David's work reveals how space is used to project authority, belonging, and conviction. That inquiry has evolved into a thoughtful body of work that blends visual rigor with deep research. Rather than offering simple critique, David approaches his subjects with curiosity and nuance, allowing viewers to grapple with the complex relationships between belief, identity, and place. His photographs invite us to slow down and consider how the environments we create reflect our values—and how quietly, yet powerfully, they shape our collective experience.
