About Me

Based out of Chapel Hill, North Carolina, Dominique Moon is a sensual multidisciplinary artist working across Egyptian dance, burlesque, and visual art. As is the creatix of Red Holy Waters, her work is guided by elements, ancestral memory, and the reclamation of suppressed Divine Femininity.

​With over nine years of experience in belly dance, Dominique moves from surrender and erotic embodiment, drawing from traditional North African rhythms and melodies. She is a practitioner of baladi, the indigenous root of all belly dance forms. Dominique has received mentorship from esteemed dancer Ranya Renee.

In May 2025, she expanded into burlesque. Dominique centers erotic expression through the blues, which she approaches as a partially diasporic North African musical lineage.

 

A lifelong visual artist, Dominique began drawing portraits in 2009. Working primarily in charcoal, she in invokes the Ancestral Mothers by incorporating materials such as lace, and flora to create intimacy in her pieces. Her work centers sesuality and embodiment, exploring the culturally marginalized edges of femaleness—the profane, sexuality, and gender expansiveness.

 

​Across all mediums, Dominique channels emotional and spiritual states through her body to reclaim its inherent wisdom for both personal and collective healing.

Pleasure is her home.
