Notes


Poreč is one in series of found objects painted with dramatic seascapes by the Edinburgh College of Art alumni David Cass. Using rough and textured materials that he finds on his travels and in flea-markets across Europe; the Scottish artist prepares and layers the object with a series of short dramatic brushstrokes that, in this image perfectly capture the ocean’s temperament and energy of the Croatian coastline. 

These painted objects are presented individually and as installation projects that, in the past, have raised the artist’s concerns on environmental change. David's latest installation, ‘Porthole Projections’ is currently on show in the Royal Scottish Academy’s Summer Show. The piece received the RSA Benno Schotz Prize as “the most promising work by a Scottish artist under 35”. 

Despite being in the early stages of his career, David has already won numbers prestigious awards. In 2010 he won the ArtSpace2Let Artist of the Year Award and in 2011 the RSMA Young Artist Award. In 2012 he won the Royal Watercolour Society Award, the Telfer Gallery Award and the South of Scotland Visual Artist Award and in 2016 he won the Windsor & Newton Prize at the Royal Watercolour Society in London. David has also been shortlisted for numerous others awards and competitions.

With his work in private and public collections across the world, it is no surprise that the Royal Scottish Academy has since acquired seven of his paintings for its permanent collection.
