A collection of who's who in the alt-comic and street-art scenes adorns the walls tonight in a portrait series by photographers Tatiana Wills and Roman Cho. The two have snapped over 120 artists since 2005 — including major players like Shepard Fairey, Kinsey, Camille Rose Garcia, Liz McGrath, and Gary Baseman — capturing their inner characters in their most elemental environments. Focusing on Los Angeles-based artists, Wills and Cho put faces to the many names that continue to shape today's popular culture from the realms of the underground.
