MONSTER BOX

 

Chicago graffiti artist TEWZ ONE andIKIL joined forces recently to capture and modify the free plastic publication

boxes you normally see on street corners and in front of train stations.

The project dubbed "MONSTER BOX" took over 1 month to complete and culminated in the release of 15 altered

"MONSTER" boxes placed and locked at key locations throughout Chicago including: The Art Institue, Millenium

Park, Cultural Center, Museum of Contemporary Art, Wicker Park, Pilsen etc...

The boxes were unveiled last Thursday night somewhere between 2-5 a.m. Some of them had mysteriously

dissappeared somewhere between 9-11 a.m. Friday morning. Many are still chillin.
