Enrico David's work often interacts with existing cultural codes, exploring the possibilities of their languages and meaning. He comments: 'I often borrow from traditional craft techniques and design styles, using their pre-given rules and functional potential in an attempt to organise and give structure to the often chaotic nature of my emotional response to reality'.

His work on display in the Triennial, Untitled (Triennial Outlet), uses the premises of the exhibition shop, Tate merchandise and display furniture as a backdrop and support to some of his new and recent works.
