    I first met Damion Berger a number of years ago at Review LA, hosted by Center.  He was sharing his wonderful underwater images from his project, The Deep End.  I was happy to learn that he now has a monograph of the work, published by Schilt Publishing and ready for purchase.

    Damion Berger – BOMBLog:

    Damion Berger’s work is interesting to me precisely because has so little in common with the majority of his contemporaries. When I first saw it, we just had to talk. So talk we did, about everything: his early mentors, the photographic rat race, form and content, and the ubiquitous debate of large versus small format. He was born in Britain and presently divides his time between Monaco and New York. This summer, he’ll begin a new series about the public ritual of fireworks. His work is currently on display at the Bonni Benrubi Gallery in New York through September 5, and both of his major projects, RSVP and In the Deep End, will be published by Mets & Schlit in the spring and fall of 2010.

    Damion Berger:

    I had no idea about underwater photography to begin with but I found a used Nikonos in a shop nearby, bought a pair of swimming trunks to match the colour of the camera and started to spend day after day in different public pools, swimming around with the camera held tightly between my legs to avoid suspicion. It was such an escape both visually and psychologically from what I had been doing and it also felt so far removed from the work I was familiar with of the genre.
