Artist Interview
James Jirat Patradoon x Vault Editions: Artist Interview
James Jirat Patradoon's work draws from a rich mix of cultural references, from 80s aesthetics and 90s fashion to comic books, tattoo design, and the occult.
James was an artist and commercial illustrator for nearly two decades, conjuring visions of a surreal, neon gothic paradise. Working across animated GIFs, murals, and paintings, his designs fused Japanese anime with pop-horror, channelling a bold, high-impact, captivating visual language. He has exhibited in Australia, the USA, and Asia and has collaborated with clients including Microsoft, Coca-Cola, Apple, UFC, Billie Eilish, and HBO.
In 2020, James began tattooing under the alias Noirdealer, creating blackwork designs influenced by horror, abstract metal typography, and his signature 80s-inspired style. He runs a private tattoo studio in Sydney, Australia.
