+    David Godbold completed his PhD in Fine Art in NCAD in 2007.  His work has often concentrated on the production of visual imagery in high and low culture. Through drawing, painting and mixed media, his work offers a critical examination into the image-making process, alongside a semiotic, epistemological and personal investigation into culture and linear historicism.
