biography

David Lu (b. 1974) lives and works in North America. His focus is on the drawn line. His methods oscillate between the traditional (hand, pen, ink) and the computational (code, algorithms, custom device input). His subject matter too varies, from pop culture to abstraction to urban data. He has recently extended his definition of drawing to include maps, particularly those that document social and technological phenomena in cities. David’s approach is explorative and research-based. His thinking is informed by a background in design and software development. He occasionally collaborates with artist collectives and research labs; his projects with Futurefarmers and the Senseable City Lab at MIT have been exhibited at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco and the Design Museum in Barcelona. He holds Bachelors degrees in Computer Science, Economics, and Psychology from Rutgers College. He studied design at the defunct Interaction Design Institute Ivrea in Italy.
