Dan Auluk's work is usually autobiographical in nature and looks at themes of absence, loss and nostalgia.

The main media he uses are painting and photography.

For the last year or so he has been working on a project about his experiences by looking at his life through his interactions with his immediate family. This usually starts of by selecting a family member and interviewing them, looking at personal ephemera and from this doing initial drawings and text based work

More recently in the summer of 2006 he organised a contemporary art exhibition in Birmingham for five working artists where they all reacted to the agreed working title of ‘Breaking News’.
