Daniel Tyree Gaitor-Lomack
Daniel T. Gaitor-Lomack’s work taps into the social and spiritual dimensions of the everyday in an ongoing dialogue between self, environment, and object. His idiosyncratic approach to artmaking relies upon a careful balance of chance and deep consideration, allowing for each work and performance to be rooted in his own history while encouraging personal, meditative interpretation.
