Campfire Stories #1

David Hunter

In my latest video work, I strive to weave together semi-connected narratives that immerse viewers in a world of mystery and nostalgia.

By combining the visual medium of video with the written word, I seek to create an immersive experience that leaves the viewer questioning the boundaries of belief. The interplay between image and text serves as a portal through which viewers can explore the depths of their own curiosity and imagination. My video art evokes sitting around a campfire… I aim to transport the viewer to a place where the line between fact and fiction blurs, where they can make their own connections in the unexpected stories that unfold.

David Hunter is a contemporary Canadian artist working in a variety of mediums, and has exhibited his art in the United States, Europe, and Canada.
