Douglas McCurdy is a Brooklyn-based multimedia artist who works in the space between the seen and the felt. Guided by fragments of daily life, memory, and subconscious interactions with his surroundings, he reshapes the familiar into something stranger, softer, and more abstract. The same, but different. Combining photography, painting, digital abstraction, sculpture, and sound, he creates a version of reality that feels both distant and familiar.
His practice is rooted in conceptual exploration. Asking questions before offering answers, blending observation and invention. Inviting audiences to reimagine their surroundings, look deeper, and reconsider what they thought they knew. As his work evolves, so does his curiosity. Translating his perception of beauty that hides in plain sight.
