David Kracov's "NY in My Heart" is a heartfelt homage to the vibrant spirit of New York City, captured through the delicate art of 3D multilayered papercut. Composing a heart from a myriad of apples, each distinctively designed, this work celebrates the city's nickname, "The Big Apple." The intricacy of each layer and the diversity of designs on the apples mirror the multifaceted nature of New York, from its iconic landmarks and cultural richness to the dynamic energy of its streets. Kracov's intricate work not only pays tribute to the city’s physical beauty but also encapsulates the deep emotional connection and sense of belonging that New York instills in the hearts of those who experience its unique allure.
Born in Boston, David Kracov studied at the Rhode Island School of Design and began his career in animation with the Brad Pitt feature, ‘Cool World.’ David went on to work with Disney Animation, Don Bluth Animation, Rich Animation, as well as several other studios, before beginning his solo work as a sculptor and painter. Kracov’s vibrant color palette shows up in his unique steel wall sculptures that begin with hundreds of small sketches. David’s meticulous steel work along with his scrutinizing attention to detail allows his sculptures to take on a life of their own, and his famous butterflies take flight. David’s playful and creative works are each a testament to his steady hand and wonderfully unique artistic ideas. His work brings joy and humor to pop art.
