At two metres tall, the elegance of this artwork is heightened by the contrast between the slender trunk of the tree and its curving, almost playful, branches that form an orb at its summit. The understated style of the sculpture interplays with its imposing height, evoking the sublime calm of the forests that provide inspiration for the artist.

The delicate and individually-shaped leaves belie the strength of their bronze form and suggest the resilience of the flora of the natural world. As a naturally oxidising metal, bronze also gives the sculpture a life that will change in appearance over time, reflecting the growth and transformation inherent to all living beings. The unpredictability of these subtle changes is desired and wholly embraced by the artist, connecting to her understanding of the constant flux of nature.
