Shiny Street Art

Over the past several months, my good friend Paige Smith of A Common Name has been experimenting with street art installations inspired by naturally formed geode crystals all over LA. She painstakingly takes molds of cracks, holes and any other interesting recesses in a wall or surface and creates tiny paper shapes that all work together to form these awesome little gems. After a coat of metallic paint, they’re ready to be installed. It’s such a rad series and I’ve really enjoyed watching her project progress as she posts images of new installations.

Check out more images from the series on her site, here.
