To introduce readers to some of the Street Artists in the upcoming show “Street Art Saved My Life: 39 New York Stories”, BSA asked a number of the artists to take part in “Back Talk” with one of our most trusted and underground and sweet sources for modern art, Juxtapoz.
Today we hear from Chris Stain.
Something you want the world to know about you: “Baltimore born. Mixed breed. House broken. Got two kids I love. Get along with punks and skins, b-boys and b-girls. Like to cut stencils. Spray paint. Write my name on sh*t. Member of justseeds.org, Out to Live, and In the Dream. Been vegetarian for 22 years goin’ on 23. Wish I could still skateboard like it was ’87.”
