My name is Damon Boyd I am a neon & woodcraft artist from the city of Los Angeles. I'm also a set designer, art show organizer & curator who specializes in showcasing contemporary Los Angeles artists.
This profile was created to focus on my passion & endeavors to create and grow as an neon artist.
At a very young age I discovered a passion within myself and a ability to craft, build, and create working with my hands. I've been developing my skills and growing as an artist and crafter ever since. Eventually establishing the art design brand name NOMAD. Art that is defined by natural beauty, social consciousness, and created with the utilization of natural resources and meticulous craftmanship.
Every art peice that I create inspires me to create even more art. Most recently I've been inspired to create art, centered around socially conscious and cultural themes.
"In a darkened environment, a neon piece attracts attention. Neon enhances details with a sort of rhythm. An everyday object intertwined with a brilliant tube of neon lighting, becomes almost spiritual"
These words best express the meaning of neon jazz art that I've created for art exhibit's, in cities such as Los Angeles, Kansas City, and New York. I also curate art exhibit's, in the city of Los Angeles, as well. The last one titled "Without Struggle, Yes Means Nothing" celebrating African American cultural contributions.
My contributions included a neon jazz art installation piece, that celebrate's the culturally rich Los Angeles jazz renaissance of 1950's & 40's. The verve, & rhythmical, influential vibe of the African American jazz artist on the music of that day.
I have also collaborated on a number of public art projects, in and around the city of Los Angeles, including the “Rosa Parks†MTA Station with Robin Strayhorn & Michael Masseburg, and “the Butterfly Cycle†MTA Sepulveda Station with Michele Martinez.
