Artist -Thomas Dade

About The Artist

Thomas Dade’s work is inspired by music, identity, and mystery. Primarily an abstract painter, the artist uses various mediums to conceptualize his vision. Thomas Dade was born and raised in Washington, DC.; credits working as an assistant to international artist Sam Gilliam and sculptor / architect John L. Dreyfuss for his passion to become a working artist. The artist currently resides and works out of his studio in Hagerstown, MD.  

Artist Statement

My work is driven via the notion that our ancestors have helped us live our future now. Pulling from ancient unexplainable phenomena for inspiration, such as the Egyptian pyramids and astrology have inspired me to create something abstract and mysterious. I have embraced the energy of music, mystery, and my ancestors to guide me through a colorful and complex journey of metaphysics. This has been instrumental for the understanding of the invisible nature of life to transcend into a physical thing I can create. ART; under the veil of Abstraction and the pioneering aspects of Afro Futurism.
