Artwork Themes & Subject Matter

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 dissective psychedelic experiences influenced the organic and aggressive appearance of the visual vocabulary that has become foundational in his work.
