Decays
Grant Miller of The Curiosity Paradox has recently been creating wearable sculptures called Decays. These sculptures use pine pitch, dried plants, and magnets, which rest on rings made of suede leather.
When The Curiosity Paradox began dreaming the Flower Arrangements for Desire Path, Jonathan Paradox experimented with combining colorful digital art as background for the Decays. We then asked the Decays if they would be like to be shown with words from our Conversation Contributors, and included in the videos. They agreed.
The following images of the Decays are owned by The Curiosity Paradox. Please reach out if you would like to meet them in person, have them shown in an art gallery, or have them made for you.
