Damien is a visual artist working with digital and found media, mixing simple analogue approaches with high-tech equipment and strategies. She re-purposes and recycles found and donated materials, exploring and intermixing contemporary and historical technologies. She often collaborates with other artists, and additionally designs and facilitates education and participatory initiatives in galleries, educational, and community settings.

Her work was originally print-based and three-dimensional; based on children’s stories and toys, it was shown in venues as diverse as phone boxes and the National Art Library. Her practice developed through new media experimentation, influenced by artist collectives such as MediaShed, and their open approach to technical and creative participation. She has developed works for traditional gallery spaces and unconventional environments - from wildlife reserves to fire training towers to maternity wards. Repurposing and misusing processes and technologies (often through lack of access to learning mechanisms as a D/deaf artist), allows her to discover new processes and outcomes, while exploration of relationships to older, overlooked technologies, gives perspective on what we consider to be innovative.
