Damian Willett

Damian Willett is based in South East England and creates paintings that explore themes of transition and flux. His unconventional layering technique builds rich strata of texture and colour, with each layer responding uniquely to the previous.

This process yields works that are more geological than gestural, producing striking illumination and inviting viewers to examine the subtle interplay of light, colour, and texture. The sense of luminosity is central, drawing attention to the complex mark- making that defines each piece. Damian’s dual background as a graphic designer and artist, enhanced by training at Exeter, deeply informs his approach to composition and form, blending graphic clarity with artistic depth to achieve compelling visual impact within his art.
