We are connected to the seemingly airless space that trees create for us as a habitable world with every breath we take.
Trees are at the centre of my life. I feel a deep reverence for their unique nature as I create my images. For me, trees represent the connection between energy (air, light) and the material world (soil, earth).
I have chosen to position the treetops upside down in the final work to invite the viewer to encounter the tree as a natural being. I think it is a chance to meet the tree rather than just seeing and judging it with the intellect.
For open-air exhibitions, I install large-format photographs, printed on textile, in trees and place them in a dialogue with the environment around them.
