Dominik Zarowny (b.1991, Poland) is an interdisciplinary artist whose work explores the conflicting emotions of desire and control through media such as object-based installations and performance art. He is known for curating a mise en scene intensifying the performative nature of his projects.
Zarowny’s work depicts the so-called ‘perverse’ nature of human fantasy by fusing fashion aesthetics and erotic paraphernalia. In his works, Zarowny transcends conventional couture in an attempt to question the conventions of societal norms.
Zarowny is a co-founder of the London-based Djago collective focused on curating exhibitions in abandoned spaces and industrial buildings of Tottenham, North London.
He graduated from RMIT in Melbourne with a Master of Fine Arts in 2023. He exhibited locally as well as internationally in galleries and exhibition spaces such as Spazio Futura (Milan), Grow (London), First Site (Melbourne), and Le18 (Marrakech).
