Dave (2023)
Statement: Dave is a reference to Michelangelo’s luminous marble carving of David, the epitome of male perfection for centuries. By projecting this thinking into the contemporary realm , the new version of David (or ‘Dave’ as he is known to his friends) cuts a benign figure in the midst of social change. With gender rules and traditional male stereotypes fading, COADY describes Dave’s characteristics as a more baby boomer than millennial, a journey in time that has redefined notions of masculinity.
