Tree of Life
2021
/Lorenzo De Grandis
Ring after ring, a picture emerges as we examine the section of a trunk, telling the tree’s story.
Trees keep a diary of their life process and everything remains engraved, as though in writing, or a modern mandala. It is fascinating to note how the shape of the trunk is so familiar and iconic, how it is reminiscent of the stratification of stones like agate, the concentric effect of shells or stars.
