藝術家 / Jeremy Yamamura
Jeremy Yamamura (b. 1981) received his degree in animation and video art in 2004. Over twenty years ago, Jeremy began his artistic practice on the streets of Bordeaux, France, where he became a member of a well-known graffiti crew. He replaced the decorative and detailed graffiti of the 90s Wildstyle movement with a more direct and impactful approach, creating his unique character, DOGZZZ, to emit positive energy and provide social commentary. This caught the attention of art collectors worldwide.
In 2004, Jeremy moved to London and held his first exhibition. He then moved to Japan in 2006 to work as a creative director and motion graphics designer, fully immersing himself in his artistic pursuits. Jeremy has become one of the most referenced and mentioned figures in the Tokyo art scene, exhibiting his works in galleries across Europe, the United States, and Asia, as well as collaborating with recognised brands such as Converse and MUJI. Additionally, he has focused on the local community in Tokyo, creating murals to support small independent businesses and creative individuals.
