The signature style of Daniel Dugan (American-Cuban, b. 1978) is that of a single line that never overlaps and is precisely spaced.  Dugan’s patience and precision focus on the beautiful organization of chaos as he meticulously stacks the line together like a puzzle. Like labyrinths from centuries ago, the meaning is a spiritual one: to quiet the mind and foster contemplation. With each work, he practices “not knowing.” 

Dugan uses a range of materials to create the line, such as ink, rope, sand, earth, wood, grass, and bronze. With his principal studio in LA, he travels globally for commissions, such as in London, Paris, NYC, Mexico City, Shanghai, Istanbul, Zurich, Palm Beach, and St. Barth.

Four of his works were collected by Eugenio Lopez as part of the Jumex Museum Collection.

Dugan has been profiled in Forbes, Robb Report, Numéro Netherlands, The Hollywood Reporter, Angeleno Magazine’s “Art Issue”, Zion St. Barth’s, The New York Post, and El Heraldo de Mexico who called him ‘El Artista de los Laberintos.”
