About the Item
Artist Commentary:
It was surprisingly challenging to represent a dead tree lying down, that is actually being held up by all of the small branches, especially due to its leaning quality.
Keywords: nature, material, gestural, silhouette
Piece Details:
Hand-made, original sculpture. Created in California, USA. Tung-oil finish.
Artist Biography:
I make sculptural installations, paintings and works on paper that explore my sense of awe in the natural world, and my fear and sadness about its destruction. I’m interested in reminding viewers of the emotional and psychological impact of encountering something bigger than ourselves. This feels especially important as more of our encounters with the world are experienced through a screen, and as the effects of climate change become more of a reality. In many of my works I attempt to imitate the perfection and overwhelming qualities of nature, while I’m also acknowledging how absurd that imitation is. I’m obsessive about learning different materials and techniques from art and craft, as well as other fields like theater, and furniture design, and each new project has required me to learn something new. I think that this level of obsession comes through in the work and adds to the feeling of awe that I’m working towards.

This piece is very intricate and has a fairytale forest feel, though it was based off of photographs I took of real trees.
