Sleepytime Gorilla Museum Tour Poster
I was always thrilled when Sleepytime Gorilla Museum asked me for help. I miss that band. This was the last project I did for them before their dissolution. The band asked for a 19th Century Invitation of sorts. Looking back I suppose they first wanted a text heavy design, but I work as an art-reproduction photographer and have access to all these great 19th Century illustrations from Les Maitres de l’Affiche and I’m always eager to do some collage-fuckery with them. I always forget this artist’s name. I need to look it up. I inverted his poster, decapitated the model and added my drawings of the bleak architecture, pollution and gorilla head. Commissioned by The End Records.
