MISTER SISTER.

Todo lo que hay que saber sobre Mister Sister está dentro de los límites de lo dibujado. Cualquier cosa que yo diga está de más, así que ahí está para que lo vean ustedes mismos.

GATO BANTRON

Siempre es mi origen y mi esencia; que soy una rata de la Ciudad de México. Esa intensidad se traslada directamente a mis cuadros, los cuales concibo como un collage total de la esencia callejera: una mezcla caótica de pintura, esténcil, rótulos, manchas y grafiti. La Ciudad de México es intensa y mi idea también: crear intensamente.

Xenix on Social Networks – Pain, Truth, and Permanence

I feel like every creative should have an opinion on what they like and don’t like. You need to be true to yourself and what you think, but also open to change and differences in mentality. Even if I disagree with someone’s art or tattoos, it’s a person who found their way to make a living creatively and pushed through whatever they had to do to make it. So, fair enough. Let the next newcomer try to do their thing.

Twin Arrows, AZ.

Twin Arrows is a ghost town off of U.S. Route 66 in Arizona, located on historic Hopi & Diné land…. Since then the property, including its two giant water towers, has become a canvas for locally Indigenous graffiti artists as well as international painters & abandoned adventure enthusiasts.

Knuckle Sandwich.

We started this band while I was finishing up coursework for a Master’s Degree in Chicana Studies; my research revolved around the performance of masculinity in Hardcore punk rock. The lyrics I write are rooted in violence as an extension of masculinity.

As art, Knuckle Sandwich isn’t necessarily an endorsement of violence, but the performance thereof. There is a ritualistic aspect to the mosh pit, as it is a space where people can assert masculinity and appreciation for the noise.

Sob Story.

I think Sob Story as a moniker aligns with a lot of people’s lives — everyone has their sob stories they tell themselves, everybody has their excuses in life. It was born from a moment in time when things weren’t going my way, but almost satirically. I think a lot of my work depicts a funnier side of life. But the name itself comes from a Minor Threat song.

LIL TAKEOUT // SKATETHISSS.

Back then, recognition came from pure skill. Today, you still have to be good, but social presence has become another layer in the process. You need online visibility on top of talent if you want sponsors or brand partners. It is not a phase the culture went through; it is how the landscape evolved.
