1858 Prize for Contemporary Southern Art

2014 Finalist


Damian Stamer

Painter Damian Stamer depicts barns, abandoned buildings, and other vernacular structures of the rural south. His heavily layered canvases blur the line between abstraction and representation as they seek to express the solemn beauty of the old and overlooked. A native of Durham, North Carolina, Stamer earned a BFA from Arizona State University and an MFA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
