Early life

After graduating from the Harvard-Westlake High School in 1995, Corbell entered the University of California, Santa Cruz, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree.[1]

Martial arts career

Corbell is a black belt in ju jitsu.[1] In 2001, he self-published his first book, Radiant Source - Cultivating Warrior Consciousness, about his philosophy of martial arts.[2]

Corbell taught ju jitsu and yoga at the University of California Santa Cruz,[3] and has appeared in Black Belt Magazine.[4]

Corbell developed a martial arts and yoga curriculum to provide training for at-risk youth. This includes a juvenile hall yoga program[1] Following discharge from juvenile hall, students continue instruction during and after their probation period.[3]

As a martial artist, Corbell has consulted on the films I Am Number Four and Bunraku, and the video game UFC Undisputed 2010.[5] One of his ju jitsu demonstrations has received over 6 million views on YouTube.[6]

Art career

While traveling in Nepal and India in 2004 Corbell contracted Valley fever. He lost more than 35 pounds (16 kg), experienced daily fevers, hallucinations, and distorted vision. He made it home to be treated by doctors at UCLA. Unable to practice martial arts for over a year due to medical complications, he began creating art.[7]

In 2004, Corbell began secretly harvesting local building demolitions for early-century windows and doors in the Los Angeles area. He began recycling them into art installations. Over the years Corbell has exhibited his work in private settings and galleries.[8][9]

In the summer of 2010, Corbell launched his art-apparel line called ICON Apparel in collaboration with Andres Izquieta.[10]

Notable art exhibitions

Some of the exhibitions by Corbell include:

  • Death to Life: Corbell disassembled computers and embedded them into vintage doors and windows harvested from local Los Angeles demolitions. The pieces were distributed throughout the Los Angeles area and showed rotating imagery and sounds from his travels in Nepal and India.[11][12]
  • Factory Girl Exhibition: In coordination with a pre-premiere of the Factory Girl (2006 film), Corbell exhibited an original body of work as part of a comparative exhibition with a series of privately owned Andy Warhol paintings.[13]
  • ICON: Life Love & Style of Sharon Tate: In honor of the 40th anniversary of Sharon Tate's passing, with the blessing of the Tate family[14] he created a 350-piece historic art exhibition celebrating Sharon Tate's style and life. The art and fashion based exhibition showcases images of her wardrobe by designers such as Christian Dior, Thea Porter, Ossie Clark and Yves Saint Laurent.[15]
  • Strange Love: An artistic collaboration between Corbell and Katrina Bea held in historic downtown Los Angeles. The body of work included assemblage works, paintings, photography, film and fashion.[16]
  • Bunraku Art Experience: Chateau Marmont: Held at the Chateau Marmont (Penthouse 64) in Hollywood California, Corbell hosted a one night only art installation for the cast of the Bunraku (film) by director Guy Moshe. In lieu of a premiere, Corbell's art exhibition revealed images and art pieces of Demi Moore, Josh Hartnett, Woody Harrelson, Ron Perlman and Kevin McKidd.[17]

Film

Corbell has also made experimental and documentary films.[18] His films include Hunt for the Skinwalker, based on a book by George Knapp and Colm Kelleher, and distributed by The Orchard, focusing on Skinwalker Ranch.[19]

In 2015, Corbell launched his investigative film series titled "Extraordinary Beliefs presented by Jeremy Kenyon Lockyer Corbell".[20]

Corbell has released several Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) videos and still images. These have included images taken by pilots using their cellphones while in cockpit, radar data showing 14 UAPs "swarming" the USS Omaha,[21] and video of triangular objects in the sky, filmed by U.S. Navy personnel.[22]

In 2018 Corbell directed the documentary titled "Bob Lazar: Area 51 & Flying Saucers"
