The book Damaged inc. is the result of a long-term project that mixes screen shots, photographs and sculptures’s reproduction. During several years, from race tracks to parking lots or farm fields showing bare, french Artist David de Beyter followed the Big Bangers in the north of Europe. They describe themselves as a community practicing car crashing as a lifestyle. They do it for the sake of it and their motto lies in the fact of destroying popular cars using violent shocks, into radical compressions. The car wrecks resulting from this aesthetic of destruction are called "auto-sculptures".
