Damian Moppett (born 1969), is an artist whose practice spans sculpture, painting, drawing, photography and video and who often uses one medium as the starting-point for another.
In a similar way, he uses movements in art history or what are for him, iconic sculptures which he wants "to fold into his work", such as Anthony Caro's Early One Morning (1962)[1] or an artist he considers his alter ego Hollis Frampton.
In the 1990s he made photographs as art and photography is the basis for much of his work but he also finds essential the transfer process of one medium to another.
He titled his show of these works in 2021 at Catriona Jeffries Gallery, Vancouver, Damian Moppett: Vignettes.
[10] Moppett also transforms paintings or drawings into large-scale public sculptures as in Untitled Abstract Drawing in Space (2019-2020), made of stainless steel, aluminum plate, copper pipe and enamel, which is approximately 200" x 190" x 96" and hangs in the lobby of the Art Gallery of Alberta.
