Paige Smith and Street art

Paige Smith is known as A Common Name and she’s a popular artist and graphic designer. She’s always looking for gaps or cracks to fill with her street art. She creates crystal minerals inspired in the natural ones to introduce them in the city (where it’s unusual to find this formations).

She inspires her work in the natural geode. Like this, every work is different and unique; and obviously, temporary. The 3D pieces on the pictures are paper made. Paper is the perfect recycled material for her art. Then, she looks for the perfect gaps to place her designs. She wants to transform common objects into anachronistic objects.

The shapes she creates are especially beautiful; in fact, they look like the real ones from a distance. The final idea is using an aerosol for painting over the paper and the resin. This provides these creations with the steep shape of minerals. You can find out more about this artist in her personal blog, where she invites everyone to find her street art and learn about it.

Where can you see her work?
