NATHAN JUREVICIUS

The Art Department Berlin 2023

Illustrations, books, animations and even toys, everything that comes out of Nathan Jurevicius‘ hands bears his personal and extremely recognizable aesthetic. We’re very excited to get to take a peek into his process during The Art Department Berlin!

Born to artistic parents, in Bordertown, South Australia – a region famous for its albino kangaroos and truck stops, Nathan Jurevicius was gently coerced into a life of painting, drawing, and crafts. At the age of 6 he sold his first piece rendered in marker, titled “Woman-with-a-fly-on-her-nose-in-a-phone-booth”.

Since that time he has relocated to various cities including a stint in London as an editorial illustrator and Providence, Rhode Island where he freelanced for Hasbro Inc. In 2013 he became a professor at the Pictoplasma Academy in Berlin co-tutoring a master class specializing in character design.

Between 2018-2019 he was the Creative Director of Dark Slope, a studio creating Location Based VR and AR experiences. He is best know for his Scarygirl brand established in 2001.

Nathan currently resides in Toronto, Canada working as a freelance artist in a variety of media including games, animation, toys and publishing.

We can’t wait to find out more about him during The Art Department Berlin!
