Jerkface

NYC , USA

Jerkface is an American contemporary artist from New York known for murals and paintings that rework familiar cartoon imagery through repetition, geometric abstraction and visual humour. Born in 1982, he developed an early interest in drawing before moving into graffiti and public art. His compositions often fragment, repeat or rearrange recognisable characters, creating a playful tension between nostalgia and subversion. Through bold colour, pattern and rhythmic structure, Jerkface transforms popular culture into images that feel both instantly familiar and newly destabilised. His work has appeared in murals and exhibitions across New York, London, Hong Kong and other international cities.
