Travelling from ocean to desert, volcanic landscapes to woodlands, he brought back numerous plant specimens. The leaves, flowers and branches collected were first placed on large canvases, then sprinkled with colored pigments and finally left outside overnight. Condensation and morning dew allowed pigments to be absorbed by the canvas and resulted in a psychedelic mix of colors. Once the plants were removed, their negative print remained on the colored canvas. Through this very specific process, similar to the photogram, Falls draws a complex portrait of California, made of absence and vivid colors, a vibrant homage to his native state and the incredible wealth and diversity of its flora and of its landscapes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gardnermuseum.org\/calendar\/exhibition\/judith-barry-untitled\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><span class=\"s6\"><i>Untitled<\/i> <i>: (Global Displacement: nearly 1 in 100 people worldwide are displaced from their homes.
