• Out of Town

In “Time is Hardcore”, Ryan Travis Christian explores time as a universal experience and the perverse as a universal language. Working in the gray in both theme and medium. The simplicity of the black and white and the cartoon-like characters is just the tip of the iceberg. Underneath, you’ll find the scale of grays and a deeper, darker, compelling story. From his inner world, a cast of characters emerges: birds, cats, and personified clocks paint a picture of the broader human experience. Never straying from the taboo in subject matter, Christian’s works and titles are both confronting and filled with humor. Nostalgia and the contemporary converge with a vintage animation style and surreal narratives.
