About Me

DC Kaelin was born in the Catskill Mountain region of upstate NY in 1976. The son of an engineer, DC had drafting tables and tools that his father brought home at his disposal at an early age. In high school DC was voted ‘most artistic’ in his class and spent most of his time in the library reading and sketching. He graduated high school in 1995 and proceeded on with a Major in fine arts and attended various art collages including Suny Purchase. After leaving collage in 2000 DC has been printed in world wide publications such as Direct Art and New Art International and has been included in various group shows featuring such modern artists as H.R. Giger and Clive Barker. He currently resides in Brooklyn, NY and prefers to be referred to by his tag name DACK.“MY fascination with modern technology has pushed my work to its limits just as science leads us into new realms of thought and belief. I utilize modern drafting tools in my oil on canvas paintings such as levels and rulers that aid me in creating crisp line and curve definition. My new work represents an emotionless state void of living human presence. A cold world of deductive computations and organic electronics spreading like a crystalline substance. I seek perfection in my work because at this point in time that is what the world demands from us.”
