Jeff Murphy is a Charlotte based artist working primarily with digital media. His creative career began while taking photography, film and animation courses as an Undergraduate at the Ohio State University. In fact, he took a number of courses while in school across a range of diverse majors. In the end, it was lens-based image-making that stuck while everything else fell away.
Jeff’s work has been published in a diverse array of publications including WIRED Magazine, World Art Magazine, and the textbook Exploring Color Photography. He has received individual artist grants from the Arts and Science Council, the Ohio Arts Council and the North Carolina Arts Council. In addition to over 40 National solo exhibitions, his digital images, videos, and installations have been seen in the United States, Germany, Hungary, Spain, and Brazil.
Jeff currently is an Associate Professor of Art at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte where he teaches digital imaging, interactive design, photography, video, and animation.
