Project Summary:
In this experimental activation, I continue my exploration with flora. The themes expressed in this showing relate to plant intelligence, the afterlife, consciousness, and sustainability. Repurposing forgotten dismembered tree trunks, I shine light on these lost limbs, and new life emerges. I find myself staring and envisioning how these trees would be thriving. By manifesting what I see as the living energy source, I feel connected to the earth. I hope to start dialogues about the drastic change in our planet's surface that we are witnessing.
