Born in Trenton,
NJ in 1967, David began writing poetry in 1989 upon hearing voices
commanding him to write a book.
Later that year he had a vision which prompted him to build a seven
foot wearable sculpture which he refers to as the DEEVA GODDESS.
He has been a prolific self-taught writer and sculptor
ever since, claiming that "art has given him a reason to live
and has been a catharsis for dealing with manic depressive disorder".
His sculptures, made of chicken wire, yarn, melted crayons, shredded
plastic buckets and aluminum cans, doll heads and other found objects,
represent a kind of exorcism of the demons which have plagued his
subconscious mind.
David also self-produces a national literary " 'zine"
called "Transcendent Visions" and a political essay 'zine
called "Crazed Nation", both of which give voice to people
with various mental disorders.
David Kime was featured in a chapter of the book, "Different
Minds / Different Voices" by Virginia Aronson, which outlined
the achievements of selected artists and explored the relationship
between creativity and mental illness.
