Damian Sawyers
Damian J. Sawyers is an experimental musician and artist. Known for his psychedelic style, Damian’s art reflects the complexities and contradictions of the human experience, delving into themes of consciousness, sexuality and the human condition. Growing up Damo was always drawn to the world of music and art and played in the local underground music scene (most notably as a founding member of punk legends warm feelings), quickly developing a passion for experimental and non-conformist genres. Damo’s experimentation with drugs (particularly psychedelics) has heavily influenced his diverse practice in both art and music. Over the past five years he has begun painting full time and completed his BFA degree at the National Art School and did his major in ceramics and has made an impressive body of work that take his crude drawn characters into sculptural forms. Damian Sawyers has expressed his inner demons through crude primal drawings inspired by ancient cave paintings. His UFO and Cat drawings can also be seen on the streets and alleyways of Sydney.
