Description

A project put forth by Japan's Tokion Magazine, five street and graffiti artists have each imagined a character consistent with their own aesthetic as well as paying homage to the history of their craft. Here, this complete series includes an amorphous orange figure in a gas mask made by twin artist duo, Os Gêmeos; a figure toting a bucket of wheat paste and a poster of André the Giant imagined by Shepard Fairey; a businessman with a bar coded box as a head by New York-based artist, Stash; a shirtless figure with a removable head created by Mission School artist, Barry McGee; and a figure of woman with a red handbag by the late Bay Area artist, Margaret Kilgallen.
