The Multidisciplinary Practice of Damian Moppett
Damian Moppett is an artist whose creative practice spans a diverse range of media, including sculpture, painting, drawing, photography, and video.

His work has been featured in numerous solo exhibitions, such as those at the Contemporary Art Gallery in Vancouver and Yvon Lambert in Paris.
