My given name is actually Jean-David Jamet and I go by Jean Jamais as my artist name. I kind of like the simplicity of the name Jean together with Jamais that means never in french. I also do really love my real name, but it's nice to have a slightly catchier artist name, that is easy to remember and not that complicated.
As an artist I try to find my own approach on what art actually is, what it means to me and what my art could mean for others. These ever shifting questions make it very interesting since there seems to be no true or definite answer, but rather a lot of different approaches that put their importance in different aspects. It makes me humble and grateful to just be another artist trying to bring another approach of expressing my thoughts, emotions and perspectives into this world.
