After a childhood in the picturesque town of Bellingen, artist Daimon Downey was ready to take the big smoke by storm with his art. But a fortuitous session jamming at a party lead to an unexpected career, the frontman of Australian dance music group Sneaky Sound System. Safe to say not your average career diversion… a few hit songs, a couple of ARIA awards and fourteen years later, he decided to hang up the headphones and get back to his first passion, painting.Nowadays, Daimon is living in Bondi in his apartment/art studio where he has taken the art scene by storm. Sold out shows, cooler than cool collaborations, and some very funky interior fit outs along the way, Daimon has made an indelible mark on the scene and there’s no slowing down.With a strong pastel colour palette, his art is loud, full of life, pace and unabashed colour. We chat about the Sneaky years, where he gets his inspo, his home and what’s around the corner. The man oozes cool and we had a blast chatting with him.House of Style is powered by Logitech and Blue MicrophonesFor more info on Damon Downey, and to see our edit inspired by his home, check out the House of Style Journal at https://https://www.houseofstyle.net.au/journal/2021/episode25/daimondowneyFollow us on Instagram at https://instagram.com/houseofstylepodcast
