Currently residing in Brooklyn, Damien has painted on five continents, and continues to impress with photo-realistic renderings of the places and people around him. Damien's mastery of portraits made him the ideal artist to capture renowned New York poet Allen Ginsberg. Using excerpts from one of Ginsberg's most famed poems ‘Howl’ as a background, the image of Ginsberg holding an upside-down American flag, signaling a nation in distress, perfectly encapsulates the New York icon in relation to the city's contemporary experiences.

Damien painted at 5 Pointz in 2011, on his first visit to the United States. It was also one of the first times he stepped away from stencils and chose to freehand, greatly changing the direction and scale of his art. Since then, he has been a recurring contributor to 5 Pointz creates.
