Chris Dyer is a soul with high intentions for himself and humanity. A soul on a quest for new consciousnesses through meditation, physical traveling and natural drug experimentations. A medium of the Most High who opens his vessel and tries to let go of the temporary ego and complications of his mind. A true soul skater, despite all the bails.

He grew up in Lima, Peru till the age of 17 where he engaged in such activities as surfing, banana-board skateboarding, and soccer fanatism (with his ex-street gang, SepUlcro). He now lives in Montreal where he continues his journey to self-realize, on a more peaceful vibe.

Chris’ main objective is to do his part in raising  humanity’s consciousness. According to all spiritual paths and science (Quantum Physics) we are Godly beings that create our own reality. Delivering positive images to the youth, via the skateboard graphics he produces, is the powerful seed that can manifest a happier reality for us all.

Career wise, Chris is responsible for a great part of the graphics for Creation, a true roots skate brand from San Francisco (if ya didn’t know). He also has done work for Satori Movement, Westside (Florida), Think, Equilibrium (Peru), Freak(Belgium), Drop Dead (Brazil), Semilla (Chile), etc. He also has his own Hemp clothing line called Positive Creations, based in Montreal.

As for his fine arts Career, he has had solid solo and group exhibitions in countries like Peru, Mexico, Belgium, San Francisco, Seattle, Whistler-BC, and of course Montreal. Japan and Argentina are on his future plans.

Other than these trips to expose his art, Chris has also done some extensive journeys through lands like Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, Indonesia, East Timor, Guatemala, Hawaii, Burma, Belize, the States, Europe and Canada of course (where he worked as a tree-planter for 3 summers). All these experiences add to the cultural richness and oneness message of Chris’ work.
