For everything, there is a season. Now that autumn turns to winter we see the remainder of the leaves and the flowers succumbing to the cold temperatures and bitter winds. As an experiment this fall the Street Artist QRST began posting small paintings of flowers around Brooklyn and we were lucky enough to catch them as they charted the natural life cycle in slow motion. He told us that the project is about how ephemeral life is, and he thought the flowers illustrated his point well.
Following are the newest shots from this weekend of the flowers in final stages of decay. After that are a couple of series of images charting the evolution.
