Link to photo set of deliciously-etched skate decks from a project called Refill Seven, "an exhibition allowing artists to explore the idea of lasering away at seven layers of ply that make a deck and add their own distinctive mark." Above, a design by Jeff Staple. I'm sorry, I'm not sure who designed the deck below (Aaron Horkey?) Snip from project description:
Only 50 limited edition decks will be produced per artist. The aim of the show is to have a series of unique decks that collectors may choose to ride or display. The exhibition [had] its first show at the MTV Gallery Space in Sydney, Australia scheduled on Thursday 5th April, to be followed later in the year by New York, LA, Japan and finally a scheduled tour of Europe.
Curated by
Refill magazine, and etched by
Precision 20 | 20 in Australia. There's
a myspace page, if you can tolerate MySpace.
(thanks, Jolon Bankey!)
