ART IN AUTUMN AT ARTISANS ON MAIN: DAVID AVIGDOR

General Announcements

David Avigdor | Photography

www.davidavigdor.smugmug.com | Facebook

David Avigdor is a digital photographer who strives to capture the emotional impact of cityscapes and natural landscapes. His subjects range from serene wilderness to powerful waters and engaging images of urban life.  David lives in Weaverville, North Carolina, in the Blue Ridge Mountains, and is moved by the beauty that surrounds us.

“In Town – Some Small Towns That I’ve Enjoyed”

He loves traveling by canoe or on foot to explore the wilderness, as well as travels in the countryside, or cities. David enjoys solitary travel, and for many years he travelled light, without a camera, and kept only wonderful memories of his travels and explorations. 

David will be showcasing his work for the upcoming Art in Autumn festival at Artisans on Main.

Art in Autumn 2017Saturday, September 16, 2017, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

In North Carolina, David exhibits his work at Artisans on Main in Weaverville. David participates and shows his work in the Weaverville Art Safari and Weaverville Art in Autumn. His work is also currently on display at The BLOCK off Biltmore, in Asheville. David’s first solo exhibition in North Carolina was at Good Yoga studios and gallery in Asheville, from January through July, 2017.  Please see some questions we asked him below!

“Falling Water”

Your photography is truly inspiring!  I’m sure there is a personal story or reflection you have with each shot.  What messages do you hope to convey to the viewer with your photography?  

I photograph not to record what I see, but to convey my reaction to those sights; to reflect a personal and emotional response to the people, places and things I encounter. My camera is a tool to interpret what I see. Digital processing allows that interpretation to be refined to convey the reality that moves me, and the impact that a subject creates in me.  I hope that my reactions to my subjects, be they images of beautiful parts of the world, or difficult ones, or quirky ones, are interesting and meaningful. Enjoy my reflections!

“Where We Are – Asheville, NC”

Can you briefly describe your most memorable or surreal experience while out photographing the world?
About five years ago, I had the opportunity to photograph in Cuba.  Engaging with the people and the culture there while photographing was truly memorable.
What are your connections with the area and where do you find the most inspiration? 
I am fairly new in this area, having moved to Weaverville in August 2016.  Before moving, I lived in the Adirondack Mountains in upstate New York.  Here in Western North Carolina, as in the Adirondacks, I am inspired by their natural beauty that surrounds us.  I feel a deep connection to that beauty, and also to our cultural connection to our natural landscape, including the cityscapes and cultural connections which we create.
