David Zalben

Wrap It Up!

Join David Zalben for an exhilarating journey into the world of wire crafting! You'll master dynamic techniques for sculpting, jewelry making, and wire art, all while watching David bring his favorite wire sculptures to life right before your eyes.

Miami based artist David Zalben was born in Brooklyn, New York, where after the age of 4 moved from city to city often, including having lived a few years in Brazil. David was always infatuated with photography, by the age of 9 he took pictures constantly, eventually working with school newspapers and winning awards at a young age. He began working in advertising photography where he established himself by engineering new approaches and innovative techniques such as the ‘selective focus’ technique. After working as a photographer, he went through a period of transformation and started to paint, which later included bending wire into sculpture.

“It’s a little difficult to speak concisely about what my art is about because it’s a whirlwind of ideas that have bounce from one medium to another, an gleaning ideas from my life’s experiences. I try to invoke something nostalgic and novel, or whimsical and unexpected which I see comes from margining all those things and a desire to display my skill and vision.”
