Damon Kowarsky studied printmaking at VCA and Glasgow School of Art and Advanced Figure Drawing with Godwin Bradbeer at RMIT. Since graduating he has exhibited regularly in Australia and abroad and worked as a scientific, courtroom, and archaeological illustrator. In 2002 he assisted on a dig for the Dakhleh Oasis Project Egypt. Kowarsky has travelled extensively in North Africa, West Asia, Europe and the Middle East. Architecture and the colours of earth and sky inspire much of his work. In 2007 he taught drawing at Beaconhouse National University Lahore and studied miniature painting under Murad Mumtaz and Mahreen Zuberi. In February 2010 he taught printmaking at Indus Valley School Karachi and held a very successful solo exhibition at Alhamra Art Gallery Lahore. Kowarsky recently participated in the 3rd Luxor International Painting Symposium in Egypt and returned to Australia from travels along the Silk Road in Iran and Uzbekistan. He is currently working on a series of prints inspired by these experiences.
