Jeremy Dan Fish (born 1974) is an American illustrator and artist. He lives and works in the North Beach neighborhood of San Francisco.[1]

Early life and education[edit]

Fish was born in Albany, New York. He lived in upstate New YorkinSaratoga Springs, until he moved to San Francisco in 1994 to attend art school.[2] He received his BFA degree in Interdisciplinary Studies from the San Francisco Art Institute (SFAI) in 1997.[3][4][5] After graduating he took a job screen printing for the skateboard industry.[2]

Work[edit]

In 2006, Nike Skateboarding released a version of the Air Classic shoe with artwork designed by Fish which they later recalled because Nike was not satisfied with the embossing.[6]

Fish has collaborated with Aesop Rock since the latter's move to San Francisco in 2005. In the fall of 2006, the pair created a book entitled The Next Best Thing, which also included a 7-inch picture disk.[7] Fish later created the artwork for Aesop Rock's fifth studio album None Shall Pass, released by Definitive Jux.[8] In 2009, they again teamed up to release Ghosts of the Barbary Coast on Definitive Jux.[9]

In 2008, DRAGO staged Rome-antic Delusions, an exhibition of Fish's paintings, drawings and screen prints. The exhibition was held in Rome, and much of the art was created there as well.[10]

His Silly Pink Bunnies (2011) sculpture and mural was at the corner of Haight Street and Laguna Street in San Francisco, featuring a large, pink rabbit head widely opening its mouth to reveal a skull. Silly Pink Bunnies was removed in 2013 due to construction.[4]AKickstarter crowdfunding campaign was started and raised over $50,000 to erect a permanent bronze bunny near the same location in the future.[4][11] The sculpture eventually found a home at the Haight Street Art Center.[12]

In 2013 he worked on creating a custom pinball machine for a project called "Bring Back The Arcade" with Tilt Warning Customs.[13]

In 2015, Fish was named San Francisco City Hall’s first Artist-in Residence and an opening O Glorious City was held in November 2015.[14] Additionally an exhibition book of his work, "O Glorious City: A Love Letter to San Francisco" was published.[1]

Personal life[edit]

Much of Fish's work has been conducted on a barter system.[1] Exchanging artwork and murals for meals at restaurants and for an art studio, but remaining adaptive and moving his art studio based on the building vacancy.[1] He has lived in many alternative spaces to save money, including in a closet.[1]

In late 2014, Fish suffered a brain aneurysm that required surgery.[15]

He was previously married to artist, Jayde Fish (née Cardinalli).[16] The couple divorced in 2019 in Los Angeles, California.[17]
