Dan Rocha is an artist from Lowell who produces mixed media work. He has a B.F.A in Painting and Sculpture from the Mass College of Art and Design and has been featured at many galleries in New England. His exhibit features artwork dealing with the emotive qualities of color, deep reflective, saturated color that evokes balance, spirit, wonder, and presence. Geological, terrestrial, and abstract “templates” are used to convey this message.
He has developed a mixed media technique using multiple coats of tinted resin and metal leaf to enhance his art. This technique provides transparency, reflecting and refracting light properties similar to that of stained glass and portrays his feeling that “the earth is a brilliant place to live and to contemplate.”
