Dragomir Misina

I use painting to document physical and psychological presence, investigating how color and form function as direct, responsive communication. My work is deeply autobiographical—a self-reflective process driven by thought and emotion. Starting organically with impulsive scrawling, graffiti, and gestural brushwork, each piece builds in stages, with every mark and color dictating the next direction. Through dense layering, twisted strokes, and overpainting, I develop complex surfaces that hold the memory of their creation, offering a glimpse into the intuitive sensation of the process itself.


Born in Croatia, Dragomir relocated to the UK and graduated in 2012 with a First-Class Honours degree in Fine Art Painting from Bath School of Art and Design (Bath Spa University). He has maintained his studio practice at 44AD artspace since graduating, remaining an active contributor to Bath’s contemporary art community. Dragomir’s work has been exhibited extensively across the UK and internationally, as well as featured in numerous art publications. His paintings are held in public and private collections worldwide across Europe, Asia, and the Americas—including the permanent collection of Bath Spa University and the Agnes Gund Collection.
