Jérémy Griffaud
Jérémy Griffaud is an artist who explores the question of the spectator in hybrid realities, through devices that blend the virtual and the real. Using digitized watercolors, video game engines, virtual reality headsets and monumental projections, he creates immersive, interactive environments. In his installations Enlarge Yourself and The Garden, for example, visitors become performers, and the work's activation depends on their involvement. In The Origin of Things, visitors find themselves immersed in a psychedelic science-fiction universe that questions Man's relationship with Nature.
Jérémy holds a DNSEP option art (Master's degree), obtained in 2017 at Pavillon Bosio, l'École Supérieure d'Arts Plastiques de la Ville de Monaco. The public has been able to experience his work in numerous artistic venues, including the Musée National Marc Chagall in Nice for a solo exhibition, La Panacée in Montpellier, the Four Domes Museums in Wroclaw, and the Shenzhen Art Museum in China. Some of his artistic residencies have taken him to Norway, China, Poland and Malaysia. In 2026, he was awarded the Prix de l'Originalité for his work Under the Sky at SAT FEST, held by Société des Arts Technologiques in Montréal, Canada. In 2023, he was awarded a residency at the Villa Médicis with the XR Farnese program. His Dungeon project won the Best Animation Award at the Boden Film Festival in Sweden in 2021.

Under the Sky
Under the Sky is a 10 minutes immersive animated film by artist Jérémy Griffaud, created at the invitation of the Musée national Marc Chagall. This 360° work surrounds the viewer in a dreamlike flow of hybrid landscapes and fantastical creatures.
Composed of nearly 300 watercolors created during an artistic residency in Borneo, the work is inspired by local tribal cultures and their deep, spiritual connection with the natural world. Echoing and transforming Chagall's humanist message, Under the Sky emphasizes our fragile relationship with plants, animals and insects. Between Edenic gardens and disappearing ecosystems, the animation offers a poetic meditation on interconnection, loss and the cycles of life.
