Damian Owen-Board is an artist working in photography, video and installation who lives and works in London. His work has been included in solo and group exhibitions. His current work, After the Trojan Horses, examines queerness and ‘othering’ in the institutionalised space – eschewing everyday banality by staging elaborate, camp and occasionally troubling interventions that alter our relationship to these otherwise heteronormatively coded spaces.
Previously Damian’s practice has explored ideas around cinematic spectacle and the dichotomy of high and low art through the constructs of genre cinema and questioned the differences between cinematic and photographic narratives in terms of how audiences relate to the truth in storytelling.
Damian studied at University of Derby and Goldsmiths, University of London, where he now the head of photography and the programme leader of MA Photography, The Image and Electronic Arts.
