Dorian Keeffe is a painter and mixed media artist based in Arlington, Massachusetts. They received their Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2018. Keeffe grew up in central Massachusetts and has been pursuing art from a young age. They were inspired to seek an education in painting by their late grandfather, Joseph Keeffe, who himself was an artist based in Arlington.

In their paintings, Keeffe uses motifs and iconography to build narratives and embed meaning in their work, referencing mythology, tropes and imagery from history and pop culture. As a member of the LGBT+ community, they hope to express their often underrepresented perspective and experiences.
