DALeast

DALeast was born in Wuhan, China where he has been making art since he was three; ‘I worked on everything when I was in China – painting, sculpture, installations, synchronizing performance, and digital art. He studied Sculpture at the Institute of Fine Arts. Animals are his main subject matter. His animals are typically depicted in two disconnected parts, often disintegrating at the center or falling away at the sides. His unusual paintings can look 3D and as if they were created out of thousands of tiny metal shards, but in fact they have been spray-painted onto a flat surface.
