Jeremy Blake Bio

About The Artist

Jeremy Blake was an American digital artist and painter known for producing wildly colorful short films with figurative images blending into the abstract. Among his many projects, he designed digital animation for the film Punch-Drunk Love, and for Beck's song Round the Bend, he created a luminescent video featuring fluorescent lines fused with photography and drawings of flowers. His work was selected for the Whitney Biennial in 2000, 2002, and 2004, and he is best known for his series inspired by the Winchester Mystery House in California.

In 2007, Blake committed suicide one week after the suicide of his girlfriend, filmmaker Theresa Duncan.
