Through Culture Object, Damon presents objects created with the intention, possibility, or evocation of physical function. Each object has a story, a conceptual function, of equal importance; they are vehicles for, and documentation of, ideas and knowledge.

In sum, Damon’s work is to present skillfully made functional objects that are technically and conceptually innovative.
