You may have seen it driving around L.A. A looming skull with hollow eyes holding up a cellphone to its’ ear. An iconic x-ray likeness of ourselves; simple, cool, and poignant. Painted on walls, billboards, posters and forged into neon signs. It peeks out at passersby in Silver Lake and flashes between electronic billboard advertisements. It shares the same name as the artist: Skullphone. Skullphone has managed to create a memorable and compelling icon in a town that’s lousy with lousy icons.
