Born in New York in 1987, Sculptor David Alexander Flinn works out of a studio in Greenport, Long Island. From there, the School of Visual Arts and Scuola Internazionale Grafica alum often treks to a nearby beach to forage driftwood and stone for his large-scale sculptures inspired by ‘earthworks’ pioneer Robert Smithson. The use of found objects, hunted for while clad in his choice of sport sandals—a pair of black Universal Teva Originals—lends an organic layer to his industrial art pieces.
