ABOUT RE-COMPOSITION //
All things that have form eventually decay.” ― Masashi Kishimoto
Decomposition, fermentation, and metabolism play key roles in our environment and facilitate the continuous transformation of our planet on both a micro and macro scale. From food production to digestion, rust to recycling, carbon release to senescence—these complex processes touch upon almost every aspect of life on earth. RE-COMPOSITION is a curated collection of science-art works that invite viewers to consider the influence of these fascinating systems on their daily experiences.
