From this, he carefully selects images that he manipulates and reconstructs into barely recognizable reinventions of time present or past. These signature David Noonan artworks blur the lines between history and imagination.
David Noonan’s artworks are held in the permanent collections of numerous museums in Australia and internationally, cementing his reputation as a trailblazer in contemporary art.
