DH Mack
We live in a time marked by climate change, conflict, questions of equality and the struggle for human rights. While these issues can be addressed through art, Mack’s practice seeks to move deeper, to the psychology that underpins them. Her work examines the desires and needs of individuals, the impulses that give shape to the collective chaos we inhabit.
For Mack, society is a shared reality, a network of interactions, group dynamics and expectations that determine how we see ourselves in relation to others. Her paintings grow from personal experience and observation. They are explorations of belonging and difference, of visibility and erasure, of how the self is shaped within the social fabric.
Her compositions unfold with a quiet rhythm, carefully placing figures in relation to one another. Through these narrative structures she articulates universal states of being such as loneliness, ambition, vulnerability and resilience.
With a background in sculpture, photography and film, Mack draws inspiration from street art, literature, philosophy and sociology. The result is a practice that moves fluidly between disciplines yet always returns to the central question of human connection and the fragile balance between the individual and the collective.
