Fin DAC: Cork street artist makes his mark with London exhibition 

From the Kino in his native city, to murals in Mexico, pieces by Fin DAC have adorned walls all over the world. He's making a temporary move indoors, however, for a show in London 

Fin DAC has a new exhibition at Gallery Different in London. 

Fin DAC is a native of Cork who now lives in London, where his latest exhibition AFTERGLOW/UNDERTOW, opens at the Gallery Different. A self-taught artist, he has achieved a truly international profile without the traditional support of the gallery system; he is mostly known for his work as a muralist, and AFTERGLOW/UNDERTOW is only his second ever show.

DAC’s real name is Finbarr Notte, his pseudonym being an acronym for Dragon Armoury Creative, the name he originally gave to his online portfolio. Over the past twelve years, he has completed murals all over the world – in at least forty countries, by his current estimation – and his paintings and prints have been collected by the likes of the musician Goldie and the actors Idris Elba and Gemma Arterton.
