It is later in the morning. The mist has lifted, the grass is still wet, and the sun has started to gently warm the earth. The backlight creates a soft yet mysterious image: the silhouettes of five pollard willows stand out sharply against the sky. For a moment, the world stands still.
This pause offers space to observe and to choose. What comes next for these trees, now that they have been pollarded? Which direction will the new branches take? Will they find their own form, their own rhythm?
In this work, the trees seem to choose an unexpected path: transparent, spherical growths, like orbs. Curves with neither beginning nor end, symbolizing the continuous cycle of life.
Nature constantly renews itself, but not on its own. When we disrupt its rhythm, nature loses that rhythm, and with it, its strength. The seasons blur, colors grow duller, and the voice of nature falls increasingly quiet. What seems a given is not always so.
