David Trautrimas explores contemporary cultural phenomena in a multi-media practice that has encompassed sculpture, installation, photo based processes, and printmaking. Oscillating between abstracted and representational renderings, his works have examined those popular icons, ordinary objects and architectural spaces that influence and inform everyday life.

Trautrimas’ work has been the subject of numerous public exhibitions in Canada and internationally in the United States, Japan, South Korea, and Australia. He has held over 20 solo exhibitions since 2005, with the most recent including ‘Tidal’, Mark Christopher Gallery, Toronto and ‘Lengths’ at Smokestack Gallery, Hamilton.

Notable museum exhibitions include his presentations in Ontario at the Art Gallery of Hamilton; The Gardiner Museum; Art Gallery of Windsor; The Harbourfront Centre; The Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art and abroad at The Korean Arts Center, Seoul, South Korea and Queensland Center for Photography in Brisbane, Australia.

He has received national and international acclaim from print publications such as The New York Times, ArtNews, The Globe and Mail, The National Post, The Star, NOW Magazine and on-line coverage through such websites as cbc.ca, dezeen.com, and gizmodo.com
