Art

• Damon Soule
  Damon Soule’s work is a mix of collage and modernism. It mixes a sense of tangibility with futurism. This site holds his works back to 1997 and you can capture an idea of how his work has transitioned to the unique style it is today. Also notice the repetition of triangles throughout his work. It is both cute and spooky.
