Born and raised in Mexico City, David has always been fascinated with the world, its function and our place in it. Through out his childhood he enjoyed the act of observing the small minute details, and what constitutes the larger picture. He later on moved to Los Angeles where he studied his craft and learned a variety of storytelling techniques that where later to be applied to his work. As he grew older he found solace in Japanese traditional art, literature and music. His love of the Japanese aesthetic took him to Japan a plethora of times where he arduously studied the pillars and nuances of what make Japan such a special place. He currently resides between Mexico City and Tokyo, Japan, trying to bridge the cultural gap between both countries.
