Jeremy E. Mayer

The work of Jeremy Mayer has, over the past 20 years, unfolded from a fascination with the relationship between the micro and the macro; this inspiration is manifest in his work viscerally, philosophically, physiologically, and sociologically.

Having no formal training, Mr. Mayer has utilized skills learned in such varied fields as package design, stained glass restoration, and working with established sculptors on public art. He has created an iconoclastic body of work that ranges from sculpture using resin and disassembled typewriters to hyper-realistic drawings borne of ruminations about the future of consciousness in relation to technology.

Mr. Mayer stresses the importance of quality of materials used and attention to detail that resonates with each work. His larger sculptures can take up to 1,200 hours to complete, and the drawings (often done with use of CAD and 3D modeling programs to assist in constructing each figure before hand-rendering) can take up to 200 hours.
Mr. Mayer lives and works in Tahoe City, CA.
