Born Long Island, New York
Lives Tokyo, Japan
His art journey began at a young age but consciously became a major pursuit when he started experimenting with a camera left unused by his father. This newfound passion was primarily fueled by capturing moments with friends while snowboarding.
Some of Grams’ top achievements include a sold-out debut collection on leading digital art gallery Nifty Gateway, digital art gallery Sloika’s all-time high sale of $2,500, and having his work exhibited in Italy, Japan, Canada, and America in New York City, Los Angeles, and Salt Lake City. Grams’ creativity has enabled him to travel the world capturing some of the most talented snowboarders, athletes and musicians alive. Through his art Grams tries to capture fleeting experiences in hopes of inspiring viewers to put down their phones and observe the present.
