Chloe Trujillo adds, “Art is my ritual, through art I feel free and safe to fully express myself, translating symbols, channeling words from unseen realms, each encoded with sacred meanings. Being part of this amazing group of fellow female artists is an honor, let's make an impact and celebrate! ‘Strength’ speaks in every stroke.”

 

Serj Tankian shares, “I’m so glad we’re hosting these amazing artists at our very own Eye For Sound Gallery. Working with Emily and her team at Punk Rock & Paintbrushes has been a pleasure and we’re excited about showcasing this exhibition in our space.”

 

And Punk Rock & Paintbrushes founder Emily Nielsen says, “We are looking forward to celebrating the art and creativity of not only the women of Punk Rock & Paintbrushes but the daughters of some of our wonderful artists as well. It is so inspiring to see the creativity run in these families and for the artists to show their children that they can be successful with their art, music or any creative field that interests them. This will be our first exhibit of 2025 and it will certainly be a beautiful celebration in Los Angeles."

As respected musicians, Anthrax’s Charlie Benante and Butcher Babies’ Carla Harvey have spent decades touring the globe and amassing diehard fans who love to see them dominate on the stage, but their creativity doesn’t stop there.

He’s notably also been behind every Anthrax album cover art the past 30-plus years. In addition to Anthrax, Benante is currently part of the Pantera reunion with several dates planned for 2023.

 

Carla Harvey is a cartoonist and illustrator whose work has been featured on the cover of Heavy Metal magazine. This event celebrates the release of Harvey’s10th annual anthology of art created on her tours, GASH 10. GASH is a yearly publication of Harvey’s artwork.
