‘The Light Within’ is a digital sculpture that aims to question the living nature of flora. Having a closer relationship with trees, plants, and nature, I often find myself wondering what kind of energy forces live and thrive within these organic elements. I question our human perception and senses. What if we can see the heartbeat of this living entity? I dare the viewer to imagine the process of this tree being destroyed. While it’s story might be lost, I attempt to bring it back to life digitally. This piece explores themes of the relationship between technology, and nature, and how universal consciousness could be all connecting.
