Acerca
Said Dokins
Dokins is a visual artist, designer, and researcher known for his multidisciplinary approach that includes curatorial projects, cultural management, and particularly artistic production and research across various disciplines such as drawings, pinturas, instalaciones, public space interventions, performance, video art, diseño, y fotografia.
Dokins studied Arts at the National School of Plastic Arts at UNAM, where he honed his skills and theoretical knowledge. His artistic focus is on the visual understanding of environments through textual elements, exploring the dynamics of writing in public spaces and its interactions with urban settings, politics, and architecture.
His work has been prominently displayed in both the public sphere and esteemed venues such as the Grand Palais Immersif in Paris, France during the 'Cargando. Arte urbano en la era digital’ exhibition and the Sixth Calligraphy Biennale in Sharjah Art Museum, UAE.
Nationally, Dokins has made significant contributions to the cultural landscape as the founder and president of the Sociedad Dokins for New Artistic Practices A.C., an organization dedicated to social work in the cultural sector. This initiative aims to expand the art field through new mediums and to connect different social sectors, using art as a central thread to engage diverse communities, including marginalized groups with limited economic and cultural resources.
Currently, Dokins is actively involved in merging urban art with science and technology. His latest collaborations include projects in 2023 with the Science Gallery and the Art Science and Technology Laboratory at the Tecnológico de Monterrey campus Querétaro.
