Our guest on Studio Sessions this episode is Illustrator and activist Cristy C. Road.
Currently working in Brooklyn, Cristy’s identity as a gay punk rocker makes a strong impression on the work she creates. Working in a very precise drawing style, her images confront the viewer with gritty scenes lifted straight out of her life. Often producing illustrations for magazines, record labels, and punk bands, she also produces zines, participates in activist events, and recently released her second graphic novel.
Listen as Cristy discusses her different projects and the experiences that inform them.
