A New Print Echoes Wall Piece He Did at Welling Court

Chris Stain has been busy participating in shows in LA and Philadelphia and Queens, NY over the past couple of months – including this piece he did for the wall at Welling Court last month.

Now he’s releasing a new print based on the same image:

“Damn Right I’m Somebody” by Chris Stain. Screen printed on archival paper. Hand colored with spray paint. 25″ W x 9.5″ H

The artist talks about where the image comes from, “This print was inspired by the J.B.’s song of the same title. A lot of times growin’ up in inner city conditions children can get lost in the mix and their value of self worth has the potential to rapidly decline. What I wanted to show with this piece is that no matter where you are from you are important because you are alive and you have just as much importance as the next person.”
