Born in 1997 in New Haven, CT, he discovered his passion for art early in life, inspired by both of his grandmothers who pushed him to explore the arts through multiple mediums.

I’m drawn to the contrast and constant motion that defines contemporary life, nothing stays still for long. Through my practice, I aim to capture that energy and remind viewers that life is fluid, layered, and ever-changing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI frequently incorporate imagery from my childhood, old textbooks, and found media to evoke nostalgia and provoke reflection. These elements help bridge the personal and the collective, inviting the viewer to engage with both memory and cultural memory. My process is deeply rooted in mixed media; I intentionally avoid limiting myself to a single medium, instead layering materials in a way that is both intuitive and archival.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe structure and rhythm of my compositions are influenced by my experiences living in multiple cities, which inform the vibrant, sometimes chaotic energy in my work. I’m interested in the dualities present in society, humor and darkness, precision and roughness, order and disruption. These tensions emerge through my use of vivid color, juxtaposed imagery, and the interplay between clean and raw details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy influences range from street artists like Rammellzee and OSGEMEOS to commercial advertising and graphic design. The raw immediacy of graffiti and the refined clarity of typography both serve as ongoing inspiration, reflecting the push and pull of cultural noise and personal narrative that defines my artistic practice.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"little-star-by-lupien-lamountain","title":"Little Star By Lupien LaMountain","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLupien LaMountain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLittle Star \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e2023\u003cbr\u003ePaint and marker on paper\u003cbr\u003e7.625\" x 5.5\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Lupien: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJeremy “Lupien” LaMountain is a self-taught artist based in Philadelphia, PA.
