Chris Haberman is a working writer, painter, muralist, curator and musician, native to Portland, Oregon. All of his artwork is created from recycled objects, found material from the streets and alleyways of his hometown. A discarded cabinet door or table top quickly becomes the backdrop for an integrated puzzle-poem of figures and text, focusing on subjects like people, politics, the region, pop-culture, media, music, film and literature.

Portland Mayor Sam Adams said in 2009 that “Chris is the hardest working artist in Portland.” In Jan, 2010, Chris was a feature artist for Oregon Art Beat on Oregon Public Broadcasting and was awarded “Portland Artist of the Year” by Barfly Magazine. In January 2011, he and fellow artist Jennifer Mercede won a national artist contest in Las Vegas, competing with artists’ from 10 other cities.

In the Fall of 2011, he completed a 219 wood panel album reproduction for an office mural for record label Kill Rock Stars, produced a 100 work show of “The Peoples History of Oregon” at Littman and White Gallery at Portland State University. In the summer of 2012, he completed an 80 foot mural about “The History of Hawthorne Blvd.” at 50^th Avenue and SE Hawthorne Blvd. on the Eagles Fraternal Lodge.
