Urban Geodes

You can go ahead and file Paige Smith’s urban geodes project under Things I Wish I’d Thought of First. Paige has been installing these metallic paper structures that mimic mineral formations in spaces in buildings and holes in pipes all around Los Angeles. The joy lies in their unexpectedness and the fact that they might be easily missed. Check out Paige’s map of their locations (12 so far) and hunt for them on your own! (via Got a Girl Crush)

Before I Die

 

 

 

Artist Candy Chang has put up a great installation at 900 Marigny Street in her neighborhood in New Orleans. During the course of one month and seven hours she turned the side of an abandoned house into a giant chalkboard to help people remember what’s important in life. If you’re in the area stop by and add your two cents to the Before I die… piece (she even provides the chalk!). {via The Bedlam of Beefy}
