2005 saw the collaboration between Mekanism and Invader (graffiti writer from France who is known for mosaic style artworks). This year, the two have joined forces again to create three original skate deck designs. Invader implemented his mosaic work for each piece and comes with his signature, title of work, date, and is also accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
The three decks are titled:
“Matrix Deck” (made from tiles from the Mekanism/Invader limited ed. skateboards last year)
“Above the City Deck” (black/white micro tiles)
“Rubik Deck” (made of rubiks cube tiles)

Take a look at this impressive custom sneaker sample from Republic Union. The custom is named “Green Venom” and it’s theme derrives from “the infusion of innocence with danger.”
Here the “polka dots” represents a innocent fun facade, while the pitch black remixed areas represents a what-could-be the real identity of a person once all those pretentious front is removed. The snake skin imprint laces emphasized this motif further. Green Venom.
