Jeremy Kai is a Toronto photographer and explorer of the overlooked urban world. He is fascinated by how humanity changes the natural landscapes in order to suit our needs and preferences. In some cases, this is something that needs to be fixed. For example, many waterfront cities have seen their rivers and ravines disappear due to pollution or urban expansion. But in other cases we can marvel at the great lengths we go through to make our city work. We shouldn’t think of the place we live… Show more Jeremy Kai is a Toronto photographer and explorer of the overlooked urban world. He is fascinated by how humanity changes the natural landscapes in order to suit our needs and preferences. In some cases, this is something that needs to be fixed. For example, many waterfront cities have seen their rivers and ravines disappear due to pollution or urban expansion. But in other cases we can marvel at the great lengths we go through to make our city work. We shouldn’t think of the place we live, work and play in as something static and meaningless, but see it as a gigantic, functional, and beautiful machine that is waiting to be explored.Official Event Photographer for Jane's WalkAuthor of photography book, Rivers Forgotten, published by Koyama Press, released December 2011Client list, published material, and media coverage/appearances:- Spacing Magazine- One Hour Empire magazine- Torontoist.com- BlogTO- NowPublic.com- TOnight newspaper- OpenFile Toronto- ReNew Canada magazine- City of Toronto Archives- No More Potlucks- Descant Magazine- NewsTalk 1010 radio- Global TV: The Morning Show- Spacing Toronto- CBC Radio: Here & Now- Global TV: 16x9- Elle Canada- Broken Pencil magazine- Grounded Magazine- David Suzuki Foundation- Jane's WalkPhotography exhibitions and public events:2010:- Obscured Metropolis at Propeller gallery- Kingston Road BIA street festival2011:- Rivers Forgotten Book launch Drawn & Quarterly, Montreal- Brooklyn Comics & Graphics Fest exhibitor with Koyama Press2012:- Group of 30 at the Oz Studio- Photographers without Borders at Brockton Collective- Rivers Forgotten book launch at Holy Oak Cafe- Toronto Comics Arts Festival exhibitor with Koyama Press- Gallery and T-Shirt launch at Nomad Shop2013:- Archi-Eclectica at Just Call Me Jack Gallery- Rivers Remembered at Nook Collective- Scotiabank Contact Photography Festival at Tequila Bookworm Show less

Jane’s Walk celebrates the ideas and legacy of urbanist Jane Jacobs by getting people out exploring their neighbourhoods and meeting their neighbours. Free walking tours held on the first weekend of May each year are led by locals who want to create a space for residents to talk about what matters to them in the places they live and work. Since its inception in Toronto in 2007, Jane’s Walk has expanded rapidly. In May of 2011, 511 walks were held in 75 cities in 15 countries worldwide.

Jeremy Kai has jittery hands. Instead of pursuing a career in dentistry or brain surgery he decided instead to draw and paint stuff (where it’s okay to nourish oneself entirely with coffee). When not hunched over his drawing table, Jeremy engages in unorthodox hobbies and explores all parts of the city through all forms of transportation. He feels that Toronto needs more mythological characteristics and thinks its people should romanticize about their city a little bit more.
