David Ort is a multi-disciplinary artist who lives in Brooklyn with his wife and daughter. He attended the Art Students League of New York and the Art Institute of Boston and is currently working towards a Masters Degree in Painting from the New York Academy of Art. A post-disciplinary artist, his diverse body of work spans across various mediums, including drawing, painting, collage, video, large-scale participatory sculptures, and ambient musical compositions. David's artwork is profoundly influenced by the disharmonious cultures that clashed around him from a young age. David's mother is a lesbian and psychotherapist while his father is a Hasidic Jewish news editor. Existing in these two worlds, he follows the conceptual threads of compassion, relationship to divinity, self, and the sublime.
