 In early 2007, Charlie Russell left his job in the technology industry, packed all his belongings into a shipping container and sent it to a trash-strewn field where he began to surround his two art cars with sculptures that would become the foundation works of "East Jesus".The Chasterus Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit formed after his death in 2011, has since guided the curation and expansion of "East Jesus".Made from discarded material that has been reused, recycled or repurposed, "East Jesus" encourages visitors to imagine a world without waste, in which every action is opportunity for self-expression.
