On 25 February 2016, Zo Damage committed to photographing a live band or more every day for an entire year. Zo set some simple guidelines for her unprecedented undertaking, the most crucial being that photographs of one or more live music performances must be taken on the day, every day for a calendar year. The Melbourne photographer completed her project on 24 February 2017. In August 2017, Zo released her 365 project book, “The Damage Report”. The book launched with a touring exhibition comprising over 500 photographs at Arts Centre Melbourne, Nanda\Hobbs Contemporary (Sydney) and Bib’n’Brace Collective (Brisbane). In November 2017, Zo was presented with The Age Music Victoria Awards “Outstanding Achievement Award” for her 365 day project and book “The Damage Report”.
