My name is Dave Lieske, but I go by Davey Gravy. I am a visual artist that lives in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I typically work with fiber, creating hip hop imagery and lyrics by cross stitching. I should note, I don’t consider myself a photographer - I just enjoy taking photos of what’s in front of me with my phone. This past year I have been traveling around my city and province more often and have made an effort to document its visuals. My interest in taking photos came from meeting people who take photography seriously. They plan day-long trips to the Banff area and familiar/unfamiliar parts of the city to explore, capture beauty, and build community. I was very interested because they were making places I’d visited on the daily look amazing through their photos and I wanted to do the same.
