Living Bark

In our lives we are constantly moving, interacting, and adjusting. We live in a flow of 24/7 while we try to understand the world around us. But many movements and processes does not take place in this rhythm. Like the growing of a tree takes years before changes on the trunk are visible. It moves so slow that we can not experience it as a movement. This work is about imaging we could see the bark of a tree, slowly drifting and bursting while it grows on the surface of a tree trunk.
