David Mauro (born May 27, 1981) is an American painter whose large scale pixelated allegories use the Renaissance technique of egg tempera on wood panel.[1] Mauro's images are pregnant with themes of classical antiquity, translated into a contemporary context by supplanting gods and heroes with representations of popular video game characters, such as Kid Icarus and Mega Man. Unlike the dystopian narratives frequently proffered by science fiction writers and artists, David Mauro embraces the technological singularity as the inevitable and liberating climax of human achievement. Raised in Randolph, New York, Mauro received his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Pratt Institute in 2003. He has shown at various art spaces throughout Brooklyn, including Valhalla Gallery.
