Ein paar Pieces vom aus Baltimore kommenden Streetartist Chris Stain, der seit den 80ern bereits Graffiti malt. Im Laufe seiner Sprüher-Karriere schaffte er sich zusätzlich ein paar Stenceling-Skills raus und kombinierte fortan beides:

“Compared at times to the American Social Realist movement of the 1930’s and ‘40’s, Stains’s work is a direct reflection of his surroundings – “the people, neighborhoods, and struggles, that are swept along with the every day lives of the common American. I want my work to be true to who I am as a person, says Stain. “I heard a great quote today by a jazz musician who said, ‘You gotta blow your own horn. you can’t blow somebody else’s.”
