About

Chris B. Murray is a visual artist based in Philadelphia, PA, originally from upstate New York. From a young age, he was deeply immersed in pop culture. Particularly hip-hop, which captured his imagination through its music, attitude, graffiti, streetwear, and sneaker culture. That world spoke to him on every level and became a driving force behind his early creative development. These influences still shape his work today, evident in his bold use of color, expressive characters, layered narratives, and carefully crafted compositions. In his latest series, Murray introduces a cast of misfit characters known as The CBM FAMALAM, who navigate the complexities of the human experience through the lens of the ongoing tension between nature and culture. Through this storytelling, he aims to bridge those worlds and leave a lasting narrative for future generations.
