David Risley views painting as a time machine, capturing everyday moments that transcend time and space. His exhibition features twenty-two works, including windows, portraits, and symbolic imagery. Inspired by illuminated Copenhagen apartments, his window paintings position viewers as voyeurs. Using watercolor on clay ground, he creates fresco-like surfaces. After twenty years as a curator and gallerist, Risley’s return to painting feels like a homecoming, shaped by years of observation and thought.
