Chris Dougnac (b. 1994) is a first-generation Cuban-American interdisciplinary artist living and working in Miami, FL. Through installation, performance, sound, painting, sculpture, and takeaway “informational” brochures, Dougnac excavates and obfuscates reality, soliciting the viewer to conjure an expanded universe cooperatively. 

Dougnac graduated magna cum laude in 2016 with a BFA in Art and a Minor in Art History from Florida International University and the Honors College. Dougnac has performed nationally with their art-rock band Pariuh, releasing their debut album in 2016 with Moniker Records in Chicago, IL. In 2018, Dougnac took on the role of Archivist and Graphic Designer at the world-renowned de la Cruz Collection, working intimately with Collectors Rosa and Carlos de la Cruz to help realize their vision. In 2022, Dougnac’s debut solo exhibition Temple, Rock, Cloud, a green screen translation of Room 825 of the Louvre in Paris, opened at the Bakehouse Art Complex, Miami’s oldest artist studio compound, receiving Miami’s Critics’ Pick in Artforum. Since then, Dougnac has exhibited at David Castillo Gallery, Green Space Miami, Tunnel Projects, and the Wolfsonian. Dougnac is currently a Gilbert Fellow and 2026 MFA Candidate in Photography at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan.
