Carved from a single piece of madrona.

Part of my recent show TREEisms, this is one of a group of pieces accentuating the uniqueness of each branch by selectively removing wood to emphasize what remains. Often, I highlight Madrona cankers – dark, crusty fungal wounds that are both strangely beautiful and the first signs of a living tree’s transition to soil.

Wall mounted with two small nails included.
