In the 2010s David Pher moved to Berlin, where his journey as artist started. As a successful DJ and producer in the 2010s, he mastered the art of creating electronic music while learning the realities of being an artist. Over time, he sought a creative outlet outside of music and began painting as a way to unwind from his career. For David, creating art became a journey of relaxation and mindfulness—a moment to disconnect from the outside world. His mission now is to bring joy and color to everyday life, especially in places like Berlin during its gray winters. Through vibrant works filled with cryptic and symbolic messages, he addresses political, social, and societal events that hold personal significance, using his art to inspire reflection and positivity.
"I NEVER INTENDED TO BE AN ARTIST AGAIN AFTER MY DJ CAREER BUT CREATING ART FOR FUN AND PASSION BROUGHT ME BACK TO IT ORGANICALLY."
Berlin continues to serve as David’s muse—a city synonymous with freedom, creativity, and exchange. Particularly in the 2010s, Berlin was a haven for artists to experiment and collaborate, and it remains the foundation of David’s creative work. While gentrification has reshaped the landscape, reducing physical spaces for creators, art continues to evolve through other mediums like digital spaces or fashion. By collaborating with August Eleven Davd's art turns wearable. For him, seeing his paintings brought to life on clothing is a thrilling way to connect with people and bring a bit more joy to the streets wherever it’s needed.
