David Copithorne

David Copithorne is a digital artist based out of Calgary, Alberta Canada. By wrapping images around different 3D shapes and incorporating them back into his photographs, a process that he calls 3D Geometric Photography, David recreates landscapes from his photographs taken in Canada and also during his travels, especially in Brazil, Argentina, Uganda, and Kenya. Using this and many other geometric techniques, David draws his viewers to look deep into each artwork where the sources of his inspirations to create are revealed. A nature enthusiast with a passion for astronomy, David reworks the beauty of worldly landscapes by incorporating into them the beauty of distant galaxies. The idea of “reworking” is key, as David sees art to be a continued evolution of past ideas reborn with new, creative perspectives. Apart from his projects, David is currently working in cinematography, finishing his last semester at university, and focusing on his future goals which involve filming for nature documentaries.
