Born in Prague, Jiri and his family made his way to the United States when he was 8 years old. Growing up in America but spending most of his summers in Europe, the two cultures helped shape his visual library and inspired him to pursue an artistic education. After graduating from Philadelphia’s University of the Arts with a degree in graphic design and a minor in illustration, his career was transplanted to New York City. He has since worked with several high profile clients, conducted design workshops in Europe, and established himself as a unique voice in NYC’s creative community. Jiri constantly searches out new ways of applying his artistic skills, and would love to hear from you if you have a collaborative proposal.
