Artist Bio

D.C. Thomas is a Romanian-American mixed media artist, writer and poet whose evocative paintings explore the spiritual terrain of matrilineality, memory, and myth.

Raised in Southern Romania and now living in Tennessee, Thomas’ works in oil and acrylic, incorporating gold foil, glitter, and iridescent elements to conjure ethereal realms where the past remains ever-present. Her bodies of work pay homage to her maternal lineage through a visual language that draws from Greek, Dacian, and Romanian ancestry. Infused with the sacred blues of Romanian church frescoes and adorned with metallic elements reminiscent of Byzantine icons, her work is both devotional and defiant.
