Yiull Damaso

At 56 Buckingham Avenue, Craighall, you'll find a squat black studio. Parked just outside is a pretty distinct scooter. All glass and mirrors, it gives the impression of a disco ball with wheels. Much like its owner, Yiull Damaso, it is one of a kind. Yiull is a 45-year old Zimbabwean-born Portuguese Italian. Wolf-lean and darkly tanned, he looks and moves like a much younger man. But it is his thoughtful speech that gives him away - that and his moustache. Thick, long, black, and curling at the edges, this Salvador Dali-inspired piece of facial hair is a strong indication of who he is: an artist, respected and controversial within his world.
