Rachel David is a Waynesville, NC based black­smith, sculp­tor, designer, and maker. Her metal­work prac­tice is holis­tic; encom­pass­ing art, furni­ture, archi­tec­tural elements, activism, collab­o­ra­tions, and garden­ing. The work focuses on social and envi­ron­men­tal justice, commu­nity, and commu­ni­ca­tion; analyz­ing the many layers of colo­niza­tion, restraints, and expec­ta­tions across bodies and land­scapes. She has exhib­ited work nation­ally and inter­na­tion­ally in solo and group exhi­bi­tions. Her work has been published in numer­ous books and maga­zines and is included in the collec­tions of the City of New Orleans, the Simone Benet­ton Foun­da­tion, and numer­ous private individuals.
