David Pledger

David Pledger is a contemporary artist and curator working within and between the performing, visual and media arts in Australia, Asia and Europe. From his initial practice, live performance, he has developed a cross-disciplinary dramaturgy in which a central platform is engaging with artists across artforms and experts from social, scientific and academic fields. In 1995, he co-founded not yet it’s difficult (NYID), one of Australia’s leading interdisciplinary arts companies. He is currently engaged in various artistic adventures with social change agency, Igniting Change (www.ignitingchange.org.au), the City of Gold Coast around his future-focussed art-thinktank 2970° and the Spatial Information Architecture Lab (SIAL), RMIT University, where he is on a research scholarship.
