About the Artist:
Daniel T. Gaitor-Lomack's performances are concerned with ideas of hierarchy, Negro Formalism, and dissociation. He applies installation and destruction in his art as an aesthetic technique for creating new forms of perception related to disorder in society, trafficking bodies and economic crisis. His own paintings and ready-mades become material for the installations that Gaitor-Lomack uses or destroys during his performances, challenging the value of time-honored beliefs that art must be an intrinsically stable aesthetic object.
