A Setting Sun is an ongoing project that deals with issues of aging, ephemerality, the passage of time, and loss. It consists of disparate imagery focusing on things we have discarded and left behind, objects in the process of dying or rebirth, and fleeting light effects or events which may only exist for the moments during which they are photographed. Ultimately realized in book form, the images that comprise A Setting Sun are published in short volumes, three of which have, to date, been published by +Kris Graves Projects. Publishing the imagery in short, discrete sequences, the work shifts and expands as the project grows to echo the notions of decay and rebirth, ephemerality and loss which are the cornerstones of the project itself.
