David Spriggs is a Canadian-British contemporary artist internationally recognized for his large-scale dimensional installations that exist between painting, sculpture, and light. Using a technique he pioneered in 1999, Spriggs layers transparent images to create immersive three-dimensional artworks that challenge traditional distinctions between two- and three-dimensional space. His practice explores perception, space-time, movement, color, visual systems, surveillance, structures of power, and the thresholds between material form and human experience.

Based on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, Spriggs was born in Manchester, England, in 1978 and immigrated to Canada in 1992. He received a Master of Fine Arts from Concordia University in Montreal and a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Emily Carr University of Art + Design in Vancouver. He also completed student residencies at Central Saint Martins in London, England, and Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany.

Spriggs has exhibited internationally at leading museums, biennials, and cultural institutions, including the Musée des Arts Décoratifs at the Louvre in Paris, France; the Oku-Noto Triennale in Japan; the Sharjah Biennial in the United Arab Emirates; Noor Riyadh in Saudi Arabia; the Chroniques Biennale in Marseille, France; the Musée de La Poste in Paris; the Powerlong Museum in Shanghai, China; Times Art Museum in Beijing and Chengdu, China; the 5th International Digital Art Biennial in Montreal, Canada; Prague Biennale 5 in the Czech Republic; and the Louis Vuitton Gallery in Macau, among others.

His work is held in prominent public and private collections, including the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the National Museum of Fine Arts of Quebec. Permanent installations can be found in major international destinations and architectural spaces, including Resorts World Las Vegas, Shanghai C-Future City, Hyatt Centric Hong Kong, and Queens Marque Halifax. Spriggs' artwork Red Gravity was featured as the cover art for Peter Gabriel's single Panopticom.

In recognition of his contributions to contemporary art and visual innovation, Spriggs received the Académie des Beaux-Arts, Fondation de la Mer, and Jacques Rougerie Foundation Award for Art in Paris, France.
