About | Dominik Gegaj

Artist Statement

My multidisciplinary work focuses on the emotional echo chambers I find myself looping back to, which I intricately explore in my watercolor paintings. The attributes of water become literal in my work, such as the reminiscence of the ocean in the blue shades, existing in this liminal, horizonless field I restrained myself to. Fragile and unpredictable is the application, and tender is each brushstroke to be taken. My Intention meets the uncontrollable flow of water, offering the viewer a realm where water mirrors the persistence of thought.

About

Dominik Gegaj is a multidisciplinary artist based in Austria, whose practice centers on his watercolor paintings. The traditional watercolor transforms into innovative concepts that have since branched into videos, animations, and art installations. His signature blue becomes a vessel for liminal, quiet and nostalgic narratives, shaped through carefully curated compositions.
