Chasing Idols began as the working title of David V Barron’s personal portfolio and journal. As a multifaceted artist, David’s work in film, storytelling, and digital media consistently transcended boundaries to celebrate the transformative power of creativity. Spanning a vast creative journey of directing, producing, editing, and writing, the DVB era archive explores profound themes of identity, memory, and belonging. It is a documented testament to an era of greatness—and the unshakable foundation of the monument that stands today.

David’s work featured in five of Romina’s published works.

Storytelling as a Conduit: For David, storytelling is more than mere expression; it is a powerful conduit for profound human emotion. His work reflects pure resilience, survival, and a breathtakingly brave reclamation of a stolen past. By weaving complex truths and intricate facts, he elicits genuine inspiration from an audience witnessing the psychological warfare he has endured—and overcome beyond reproach.

Lasting Impact: From his deep and moving film on his late grandfather’s spirituality and his candid documentary on the rarefied, maverick brewing heiress Daphne Guinness, to his acclaimed exploration of creativity and depression. Whether through his nuanced, loving tributes to 1980s trauma bonds through Joan Collins of DYNASTY and Jane Badler of the cult sci-fi series ‘V’ by Kenneth Johnson – David’s works are not merely encountered, they are felt, remembered, and leave an indelible mark on all who witness his originality. His work is a powerful call to action for creativity, healing, and growth.
