He lives and works in Arnhem.
To become acquainted with Damsté's work is to be overwhelmed. With countless etchings, lithographs and silkscreens, many sculptures and objects, with countless drawings, watercolours and paintings, his oeuvre has many manifestations.
Characteristic in all his work is the often strict arrangement of image elements and the use of diverse materials. Order and rhythm. Rhythm is created by alternation of defined volumes and the contours provide a spatial drawing.
Damsté lives and works in Arnhem. His work is included in various collections including: Municipal Museum of Contemporary Art in Ghent, the Frans Masereel Centre in Kasterlee and Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam. He has also taught at De Vrije Academie, The Hague, Staatliche Kunstakademie, Dusseldorf and the Academy of Visual Arts Arnhem.
