Dan McDermott

Concept

Dan McDermott’s work is characterized by originality and diversity of subject matter. He works with television or film scenes taken from a unique perspective, and enhances them with a layered mixture of colour and light that aim to capture the originality of the frame, producing a “moment in time” effect rich with personality and nostalgic context. Always expertly crafted, Dan’s work is highly acclaimed and evokes the time period of his varied subject matter, from classic American cars all the way to unique urban settings of the 60s or 70s. In sum, his art captures superbly the iconography of his settings, and reflects a feeling of uniqueness and energy throughout.
