Life and career[edit]
Jiménez was born in 1990 in Honolulu to Puerto Rican and African-American parents.[3][4] His father was a body builder and would go on to influence aspects of his work.[5][6]
He was raised in a poor neighborhood in Philadelphia. He attended Charter High School for Architecture + Design, a now defunct school that gave opportunities to at-risk kids with creative ambitions.[7]
In 2013, he earned a BFA in printmaking from the Cleveland Institute of Art, and 2018 a MFA from the Slade School of Fine Art, London.[4][8] Most recently, in early 2023, he was selected as one of the artists to illustrate and give life to the Artistic Posters for the Paris 2024 Olympic & Paralympic Games.
Jiménez works closely with the esteemed art dealer Mariane Ibrahim and is represented by her gallery.[9][10]
