Adrian Dominic is a member of the Beautiful Bizarre Artist Directory
Adrian Dominic is a contemporary painter and tattooer whose work is most recognized for his organic abstract forms in dynamic lighting conditions. This language of shapes and forms are unique to the artist and consistent in their appearance in several different media. Adrian was born in Phoenix, Arizona in 1980. In 2015 Adrian Dominic was granted a Distinguished Talent visa and moved to Australia. He now works and resides on the Gold Coast in Queensland.
Adrian Dominic attempts to depict omnipresent ancient relics left by ancient ancestors from our future to help our species in its efforts towards self awareness. He often refers to his work as biomechanical prayers, speaking a language he only knows as instinct and their translations often evade him like trying to remember a dream.
Being exposed to Chicano culture from birth and growing up in a heavily Catholic environment was a primary setting for Adrian in his childhood. Gang and criminal activity in nearby neighbourhoods was often synonymous with living in them. As a means to escape this cycle, Adrian became engaged in graffiti art and underground rave culture in the mid 1990’s.
This post-industrial setting combined with cathartic religious dissected psychedelic experiences influenced the organic and aggressive appearance of the visual vocabulary that has become foundational in his work.
