Dolan Geiman

Dolan Geiman is a Denver-based artist whose work is rooted in the ethos 'Built from the West.' Drawing on his background as a naturalist for the Forest Service, Geiman meticulously reconstructs the American landscape using 'salvaged history'—thousands of hand-cut fragments of vintage paper ephemera, reclaimed wood, and metal. These labor-intensive reclamations transform discarded artifacts into soulful icons. With a career spanning over two decades, his work is held in prominent collections worldwide, offering a sophisticated, modern interpretation of western iconography and the enduring spirit of its landscape.
