Artist Follow Up: Phillip K Smith III

As some of you may remember, a couple weeks back I covered a story on Phillip K Smith III’s most current project, his Artist in Residence exhibit at the Palm Springs Art Museum. (For all those with a bad short term memory, feel free to click here for the article.) At that time, Phillip was just in the preproduction, conceptual, dreamy stages of his installation… the hard part, the actual installing of the project was yet to come…

Well, the time has come and Phillip K Smith III has been steady on the grind.

I thought it would be cool to share with you his progress and watching all the magic happen. I don’t know about you, but we can’t wait to see the final product!

Check it out: this was his initial concept for his installation:

and look where he is with the production of completion right now…

So gnarly, right?
