magine walking the streets of bustling cities throughout the world – Los Angeles, Madrid, Istanbul, Philadelphia, Bali, San Francisco, etc. – and discovering small crystallized geodes hiding in unexpected and secluded spaces. Such hidden surprises do exist, and they’re the work of Paige Smith, an artist in LA who aims to transform commonplace objects into “anachronic object[s] that no longer follow the ‘regular’ world’s rules.”
Since the project’s start in 2011, Paige has sought cracks between bricks, drain grates, old phone booth interiors, used cans, and the insides of pipes to work her magic – celebrating the astonishing allure within cities. Using spray paint on paper- or silicon-molded resin, she imitates the rugged patterns of minerals to fill the blisters and blemishes of urban life with unexpected charm and artistry. Her installations don’t last forever, but that’s the point – her work compels beholders to pause, be present, and appreciate the delicacy in the ordinary.
