...as beautiful as they are, the paintings evoke a state of basic contradiction that has a way of getting under your skin. —Dan Piepenbring, The Paris Review
Dorman offers us what he can of his own charged reality, and in doing so reawakens us to ours; he offers us a shared visual field – a shared illogic – that maunders like the mind, that honours its own eccentric questings, its pointless cataloguings, its rampant, fecund combinings.... —Nam Le, Lost Divers catalog essay
No plan, no agenda, no constraint. If there is a formal method underlying Dorman's art, it would be this: You find it in the act of doing it, and each time you do it, you discover something you hadn't known before. —Paul Auster, CUE Catalog essay
Dorman constructs fantasy lands and visual puns with the wonky, romantic intensity of a daydreaming ten-year-old. —New Yorker Magazine
