DOMINIQUE CARELLA (she/her) is a clothing designer, visual artist and performer from San Francisco, California. Carella currently produces text-based works in her studio in the San Francisco Bay Area, and hosts “Oh-Babe” clothing pop-up shops and art shows across the United States.
 

Carella started her creative career as a professional hip-hop dancer, with 20+ years of prior dance and performance experience. Carella's dance background, combined with her trendy streetwear designs and her budding contemporary art practice, offers an eclectic creative experience for viewers and consumers.
 

Carella’s text based works explore a variety of issues that plague our daily interactions, including but not limited to intersectional feminism, gender roles and binaries, and violence against womxn.
 

In 2018, Carella released her "Shop Dom" merchandise line, which includes her "feminista" confrontational messages and imagery. In 2021, Carella re-branded her merchandise line with the new persona “Oh-Babe”, now available for purchase online at oh-babe.com.
