The Hundreds by Lance Montoya

The story behind this collaboration began in the ‘90s and started with a band named Primus. Primus’s album cover art displayed what Bobby described as “bizarre sculpted fantasies of grotesque, distorted figures" and “cartoonish and unsettling creatures.” The man responsible for these works? Oakland-based artist, Lance “Link” Montoya.

But he wasn’t that easy to find. Montoya had a falling out with the band and took to other occupations, like construction and miscellaneous odd jobs. He wasn’t solely invested in his art, and tracking him proved to be a difficult feat (remember, this was 2009. Things just weren’t as fast).

Bobby spent months trying to find Montoya, making cold calls through White Pages, sending e-mails to nowhere, and finally, trying his hand at snail mail in hopes of “[getting] a tug on the other end of the line.” Miraculously enough, the stars aligned, and thus, The Hundreds by Lance Montoya was born.

Montoya ended up creating three unique sculptures for The Hundreds, each meant to embody the spirit of the ‘90s while channeling The Hundreds’ aesthetic.
