Dominic Mangila

Biography

Dominic Mangila explores the cross-fertilization of abstraction in disparate forms in painting, installation and video. To prod painting’s other unknown sphere, he explores the reconsideration of the brushstroke as a performative signature of the mind’s interiority and the individual aesthetic gesture of the body’s phenomenological sensitivity to all that is present in the painting studio.
