DOMINIQUE CARELLA is a sculpture artist, performance artist, and streetwear designer from San Francisco. Carella currently produces text-based works in her studio in East Hollywood, and hosts regular “Shop Dominique Carella” pop-up shops around California. Carella’s work explores a variety of issues that plague our daily interactions, including but not limited to intersectional feminism, race politics, cultural identity, gender roles and binaries, and violence against womxn. Carella's use of bold text-based sculptures, clothing, prints, and street art inspired stickers and buttons, allows her social commentaries to be shared with the masses. In 2018, Carella released her first full clothing line, which includes her "feminista" confrontational messages and imagery, now available for purchase online at dominiquecarella.com/shop.
