In his cleverly titled project ‘Tales You Lose’, Frankfurt-based Brazilian designer Andre Levy paints various pop-culture characters on coins.
Started out on Instagram, his project aims to inject some fun and whimsy into plain and ordinary change.
“Coins are actually massively-reproduced little sculptures,” described Levy. “This project brings individual character to each replica, and makes us think: Are we able to like one cent more than others, just by injecting new stories in it? Those are the Tales You Lose.”
