Christian was born on the dining room rug and spent the next couple of decades as a filmmaker and writer. “Thanks” to pandemic creative atrophy, he turned to digital collage under the moniker, Yearbook Of Creeps.
What started as art therapy quickly became a new spark. His film background has him continually exploring storytelling and world-building, now whittled down to a single frame rather than twenty-four per second. His love of kitsch keeps things playful, pairing colorful pop with a surreal lens.
Christian has never claimed to know what he’s doing, which is arguably the best part of this new artistic practice. Being from the Midwest, however, he’d prefer not to argue.
