Multi-disciplinary artist and graphic designer professionally known as ‘A Common Name.’ She’s most notable for creating her street art series, Urban Geode, which consists of sculptures made entirely out of paper and resin casts. Her project has landed her opportunities with companies such as The Standard, Hollywood and The Viper Room.
After graduating, she moved to San Francisco where she worked as a graphic designer, building marketing materials for major companies such as MTV, PayPal and ABC.
She was named one of the most significant up and coming street artists to watch in 2016.
She was born in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and grew up in Texas. She earned her BFA in design communications at Texas Tech University.
She’s a graphic designer best known for her street art much like Shepard Fairey.
Smith is best known for creating “Urban Geode,” a series of geode-like sculptures made of paper or resin, which she installs in urban settings. The project began in 2011 when Smith came across a photograph of an amethyst that she was inspired to recreate out of paper. Noting the increasing prevalence of murals on the streets of Los Angeles, Smith was moved to put her artwork on the streets as well. For her first piece, Smith found a building with a chipped brick within her community of the Historical Arts District. She realized the shape of the missing brick was the perfect fit for her geode sculpture and created a customized mold to fit inside.
In October 2015, Smith collaborated with S*uce, a local fashion and lifestyle brand, to create a trail of THINGS [EXTRA]ORDINARY around Dubai’s design district. This urban installation elevated everyday objects, from a rocking chair to a water shed, through the placement of Smith’s geodes to create re-imagined landscapes.
In early 2016, Smith took on her first project in the Southeast, serving as artist in residence at the Maitland Historical Museum in Florida. Drawing on her work with the “Urban Geode” project, she created site-specific installations outdoors throughout the Maitland Art Center’s National Landmark campus.
Smith’s work was installed as the backdrop for a Keds (shoes) global rebrand ad campaign featuring Taylor Swift and promoting female empowerment in the arts.
Smith’s work has received critical support and has been featured in print art books, online forums and traditional press sources including: LA Canvas, Angeleno magazine, The Huffington Post, and the Los Angeles Times.
One unusual aspect of “Urban Geode” is it is often found in unconventional locations. Harriet Williams of The Huffingpost Post UK reports: “Paige Smith’s Urban Geode project fills up the cracks and decayed spaces of Los Angeles…”. Since first installation in Los Angeles, Smith has refined her “Urban Geode” project and put up installations in various urban settings around the world, including locations in Spain, Bali, Turkey, Dubai and the United States.
