Damien Hirst

1965 Born, Bristol, UK
1989 Graduated, Goldsmiths College, London

When making my work, I was told that  my work reminded them of Damien Hursts work, so I have looked up his work and its similar but he uses much better materials. But I had to work around that problem as we don't have the money to supply me with dear materials like diamonds and I don't have access to them either. I improvised and went for bottle tops as they are easy access and a new idea to work with.
