Daniel McKay

performance & sculpture artist

Daniel McKay is a mixed media artist and dancer. He brings his joyous playfulness to the studio and infuses this same energy into his artwork. He is unafraid to experiment with colors, textures, shapes, materials and the third dimension. His sculptures represent colorful maps of the creatures he names them after.
Daniel is always enthusiastic to make progress on his work, don garments in progress, apply tape to faulty sidewalks for the PEAC project, and participate in any other projects he is involved in.
"He does a good job."
- Daniel McKay
