Chris Dorosz earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Concordia University in 1994 before completing his Masters of Fine Art at the Nova Scotia College of Art & Design in 1997. He now maintains a studio practice in San Francisco where he also teaches Color Theory, Design, and Painting at the Academy of Art.
The artist describes his approach to painting and sculpture as such:
“Out of material discovery I began to regard the primacy of the paint drop, a form that takes shape not from a brush or any human-made implement or gesture, but purely from its own viscosity and the air it falls through, as analogous to the building blocks that make up the human body (DNA) or even its mimetic representation (the pixel). With this in mind I’ve been working towards creating a narrative of materials as the groundwork to explore changing ideas of human physicality in an age pushing towards virtual reality.”
