about
Nick Dahlen is a painter, illustrator and designer from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Graduating with an Associates degree in graphic design from the Art Institutes Intl. in 2010, Nick has since designed for both local businesses and music makers alike. He’s been commissioned by Vita.mn, has collaborated with other artists in painting murals around the Twin Cities, and has been making and showing his own work since his graduation. His influences range from whimsical children’s book illustrations, to Matisse, all the way to the effortless motion of a graffiti tag. Nick is fascinated by the simplicity of how one brush stroke can tell a story and is devoted to pairing shapes and ideas that could write a visual novel. His aim is to inspire the viewer into seeing life in a more creative, fun and bizarre way. His work invites you to step into a world devoid of boundary, revolving around the silly, unique and complex nature of the human condition that proves Nick’s work to be both fanciful and full of depth. Through the use of vibrant colors and ideas his aesthetic evokes a dynamic that is fresh, urban and thought provoking.
