Cartrain
Cartrain (born 1991), often stylised cartяain, is a British artist associated with the graffiti urban art movement. YBA artist Damien Hirst has threatened to take legal steps against Cartrain over his art and activities. Cartrain's art has also been appropriated by well-known artists such as Gilbert and George,Jamie Reid,David Shrigley and Mr Brainwash
Early life
Cartrain said the choice of pseudonym was "random". From Leytonstone, East London, he started doing graffiti art at the age of 12, and initially worked in his local area, but "because no one pays any attention" had moved on by the age of 15 to the back streets near Old Street and Brick Lane in Hackney, and also to central London, even spraying on walls opposite the Houses of Parliament.
His work often features notable mainstream figures such as George Bush and the Queen.
In April 2008 Boris Johnson invited him to display his work at City Hall.
Photography
Cartrain started photographing abandoned buildings in 2007 and has been a major influence in the sport of Urban Exploration. He has explored over 150 buildings without permission since 2009 including Millennium Mills, Lots Road Power Station, St Mary's tube station and Walthamstow Stadium.
