Dan McPharlin
Design. Sculpture. Illustration.
Dan was born in Adelaide, Australia in 1977. After studying Visual Arts at university
he began working as an independent artist and designer. Working across various
media, he developed a unique style of work that drew on early modernism, science
fiction, surrealism and victoriana.
Dan's parallel work in sound art and electronic music often influences his visual
output, the Analogue Miniatures series being a good example. These tiny models
of fictional synthesizers and recording equipment were inspired by Japanese
capsule toys and the vintage aesthetic of cluttered analogue control panels.
Dan has produced work for record sleeves (as featured on Steve Jansen's 'Slope'), magazines, books and websites, and
has exhibited his work in Australia and overseas.
