  Dominic Shepherd  

Dominic Shepherd is a UK based artist and associate professor of Fine Art at the AUB where he acts as Arts subject leader within the Graduate School and award leader MA Painting. Shepherd’s research, in both academic and practice-based terms, is concerned with aspects of the painted, the occult, myth-making and alternative narratives. He has exhibited internationally, with an extensive record of group and solo shows in London, New York, Berlin, Los Angeles, Helsinki, Frankfurt, Munich and Miami and is represented by Charlie Smith London. He was co-founder of the international Black Mirror Research Network that explores the influence and role of enchantment, the occult and magic in modernist and contemporary art.

Currently he is a member of the nascent Inner Space Exploration Unit, an interdisciplinary group (AUB; PCA; University of Cambridge) that has acted as a recent drawing catalyst. Shepherd enacts certain locus based processes and privations so as to, through drawing, communicate with the invisible. Selected findings were delivered at the 2021 International Society for the Study of Surrealism conference and will be published in the first ISEU gazetteer.
