Tristan-Eaton-Detroit-1

Curated for a new parking  space in collaboration with Detroit entrepreneur Dan Gilbert, the Library Street Collective commissioned 23 artists from all over the world to paint murals in a newly constructed mixed-use space.  The project was called Garage Project and Tristan Eaton was one of the artists invited. The massive wall gives room to his characteristic style and imagery based on his love for comics, pop culture, advertising and his career as a toy designer and illustrator, something that becomes pretty evident when you see the result of this mural.
