Sam Falls and Problems With Decomposition

But digital is forever--

Bookshelf | Sam Falls's 'Problems With Decomposition' - NYTimes.com: "The Los Angeles-based artist Sam Falls, 28, delights in the process of deterioration. Straddling sculpture, painting and photography, he has spent the last few years investigating the long-term effects of sunlight, time and natural decomposition on materials like paper, steel and cloth, creating works as interesting for their process as much as for their finished state. Take “Light Work,” for instance, a book filled with colored paper left to fade on Falls’s studio windowsill, or a colorful sculpture, coated in non-UV-protected pigment so as to physically absorb the movement of the sun over time. The results are frequently messy, but purposefully so. “None of my work is picture-perfect,” Falls says. “It’s muddied and filled with aspects of failure. That way it’s often easier to understand.”. . ."
