James Marshall-commonly known as the artist Dalek-made his mark in the art worls with his iconic Space Monkey character,
which looks like a catatonic, twisted mouse. "The Space Monkey is my concept of a human being," he says. "It's a tool for
relaying and exploring ideas."
Marshall grew up in a military family, and his childhood was punctuated by drastic moves every couple years. He lived up
and down the East Coast, and ended his high school years in Japan. He turned to the subcultures of punk rock, skateboarding
and graffifi for inclusion and identity.
