Wallpaper



Some things come better with age. Dust and neglect settle out the colors of wallpaper and wood to create some of my favorite textured looks. Something of the same quality can be said for the abandon and emotion of the photographs of Francesca Woodman, one of my favorite photographers of the last century. These images will always be connected in my mind to the unsettled, rusted out splendor of the south, and the coming of age moments Ive experience coming here away from home. For the beauty and detail of this wallpaper I recommend the wallpaper museum in Rixheim France (where all these images reference back to). As one of the oldest and most noted creators of fine printed wallpaper the museum houses incredible catalogues of beauty and history. The old Alsacian building and courtyard that house the old studios and collections are amazing in themselves.
