Real flowers blend with vividly colored glazes on Sam Falls’ recent ceramic sculptures at 303 Gallery to offer an intense experience of nature, real and represented. Working with flowers and plants from his own garden, Falls rolls them into ceramic slabs which he fires to burn off the organic matter. Referring to the remaining silhouette of the plants as ‘fossilization,’ the artist aims to preserve elements of a changing landscape as a record for the future. (On view through May 30th).
