Influenced by manga, comics, cartoons, propaganda, and advertising, FAILE has created the series Puzzle Boxes comprised of various wooden boxes decorated with the duo’s characteristic appropriated collages. The boxes, designed to be physically handled and played with, contain 88 painted wooden blocks that can be combined to create different images. FAILE initially explored with paint on wood for their 2010 exhibition Bedtime Stories at Perry Rubenstein Gallery. Raising questions of process and form, FAILE has created works composed from numerous painted wooden blocks that when assembled build a unified work.
