Richard Simmons DuPont Jr. (born October 5, 1968) is a postdigital American artist and educator whose installations, sculptures, paintings and prints examine the social implications of 21st century digital technology.

[5] A pioneer in the field of Digital Art, Dupont began using scanners and 3D printing in 2002 to capture and replicate distorted images of his body.

Dupont's work examines the degree to which the primacy of the human gesture has been radically altered by the onset of digital technology.

He also uses his art to interrogate expressions of power and control, and to examine how anthropometry, the Victorian science of mapping the body, has morphed over the past century into biometrics.

In 2024, Richard Dupont's work was included in Every Sound Is a Shape of Time: Selections from PAMM's Collection, curated by museum director Franklin Sirmans at the Pérez Art Museum Miami alongside the artworks by other sixteen artists from the institution's holdings.
