Mural in the 518

This month I travel to upstate NY to do some painting on the outside of 518 Prints screen printing company. At their request I plan to re-visit some of the working class themes that inspired me to initially cut stencils back in the late ‘90’s. Check my blog, www.chrisstain.com for photos.


Green Day - East Jesus Nowhere

My good friend at Workhorse Visuals contacted me about doing an illustration for a GREEN DAY project based on lyrics from their new album, "21st Century Breakdown". I was given the song "East Jesus Nowhere" and asked to put something together based on the feelings I got from the lyrics. Recently I completed the piece for the limited edition release of the album. The work will be featured in a booklet that accompanies the cd. It will also be traveling with the band and displayed at different music venues in a gallery format.

Circleculture Gallery's Web site

"I've always really had the sense of the way that people store things inside their bodies and the way that everything you've ever seen or ever done is a part of you.and I felt like in a way if I could somehow draw that.or make an x-ray - maybe it was just your experiences that day or maybe it's just what you walked past that day, or maybe it's a deeper story that's.somewhere in there for the telling."

fm the artist: "the size of the work is 78x78 inches, or 200x200 cm. i know it`s just statistics, but in the end it was more than 300 stencils, and 250 hours of work"
