Sam Falls

AmericanAmerican
, b. 1984

Sam Falls is a contemporary American artist whose innovative work blurs the boundaries between art and nature, integrating natural phenomena into artistic processes. His paintings, prints, sculptures, and videos often juxtapose organic forms with man-made objects, creating a dialogue between the two realms. As Falls puts it, "We change the work by being present, and the work changes us by being present. We are breaking down and being built up, just like every moment." Born in 1984 in San Diego, CA, Falls earned his BFA from Reed College in 2007 and his MFA from the International Center of Photography-Bard in 2010. His work has been showcased in prominent spaces such as Metro Pictures, LAXART, and the DEPART Foundation in Rome. Falls divides his time between Hudson, NY, and Los Angeles, CA.
