A poignant look into the psychological depths of the human mind-its
possibilities and fragility. This is the impressive and sensitive
legacy of the painter David Byrd. The artist joined the army during
World War II and later worked as an orderly in the psychiatric ward
of a Veterans hospital in Upstate New York. From 1958 to 1988,
Byrd's keen observation of this world, filled with the crowded
histories of its troubled patients, was recorded in the artist's
sketchbook. This publication is a replica of the deeply personal,
creative, and revelationary journal examining the human experience
and its potential for pain and alienation on the fringe. Byrd's
work was not publicly exhibited until 2013, only a few months
before his death-an omission that seems absurd in the face of such
a powerful output of artwork expressing the artist's perspective as
a veteran himself and his empathy toward those living with
psychological trauma.
