Fame

As an infant, Elden was featured in a photography project that led to his placement on the cover of Nirvana's album Nevermind, where his circumcised penis was visible, stirring controversy.[2] Over 26,000,000 copies of the album have been sold worldwide, to which Elden stated he feels as if the entire world has seen him naked.[3] Elden has worked for Obey's Shepard Fairey and continues to define his artistic style through inspirations from other street artists.
