CREATED BY BRANDON SINES / 2018

“The passion and desire to make art started for me as soon as I could hold a crayon.

My work represents the notion of mystical connections, striving towards a greater good

and having fun while you do it”.

- SINES

Artists Brandon Sines created his piece de resistance “FRANK” in 2010 after moving it

NYC to pursue his art. Since then, Frank

Alphabet

Ape has become a global phenomena, and Sines

has taken to putting up his likeness all around New York, and across the world. Recently

Sines was awarded a massive installation at the World Trade Center, hand painted murals

around New York City, and had a series of works featured on Link NYC’s digital Kiosks

as part of #ArtOnLink. It’s easy to understand why so many people are passionate

about Frank; look at his lovable face!

On Frank, Sines has this to say: “Frank Ape is a mystical

creature who lives in New York City amongst the humans

but without human restrictions. Frank has special powers

that even he continues to discover as he is tested by

the many challenges of life. Frank embodies positivity and

equality, and cares about all living things. He believes in

using imagination and play to “create your own universe”

and inspiring other people and animals through thoughtful

actions. Frank can be seen all over the world on any given

day but it is New York City that he calls home. Frank is an

extension of everyone and everything. Helping others helps

everyone.”
