Mick Rock, often referred to as “The Man Who Shot the Seventies,” is famous for his photographs of rock legends like David Bowie, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, and Debbie Harry. His work is a cornerstone of rock history, capturing iconic moments and personas from the 1970s.
Fin DAC, an urban artist known for his distinctive spray paint technique and depictions of Eurasian women, brings a contemporary and vibrant twist to Rock’s classic images. His style, which he calls “Urban Aesthetics,” is recognised for its sensitivity and empowerment of female subjects, challenging traditional stereotypes and celebrating cultural diversity.
Launched in March 2021, the MIDARO project consists of limited edition prints that reinterpret Rock’s photographs through Fin DAC’s artistic lens. The collaboration includes four prints featuring Bowie, Reed, Harry, and Iggy Pop with all prints sold out in a matter of minutes!

Originally from Cork, Ireland, Fin Dac (or Finbarr Dac) has lived in London all his life.
His pseudonym DAC (which stands for Dragon Armory Creative) was found by a Chinese friend. When he started making street art, he took up this nickname and used a dragon logo as his signature.
His passion for art began at a young age. At school in Cork, he was only interested in two subjects: art and technical drawing.
Unfortunately, the school did not offer an art curriculum. He became a technical draughtsman on engineering projects before becoming a digital designer.
Artistic director of the Beautiful Crimes gallery in the heart of Soho, Fin Dac also participates in the development of urban art.
Recognised in his field, he has been commissioned by major brands such as the Royal Albert Hall, Armani, G-Star, Red Bull and also collaborated for the London Olympic Games in 2012.
