In Stacking Trees, Menno Hiele breathes new life into felled trees by transforming their bark into reconstructed sculptures. Digitally designed and CNC-milled, each piece reflects the tree’s original form while embracing a new, abstracted identity. Vibrant colors, drawn from the tree’s environment or unique history, highlight its presence. These works stand as both tributes and reconstructions—honoring what was lost while exploring new possibilities of form and memory.
