TREE

A single form, four states of growth.

One central life axis. A field of many axes.

FOREST

The forest before
the split horizon.

Four earlier works form the path toward the split-horizon chapter: dissolution, gathering, connection and integration.

Interweaving

11 works

Tree-number chronology

Across the 1500s and 1600s, the solitary tree and the collective forest alternate and intertwine. A centred form stands as an individual life, while repeated forms expand into a shared grove.

Embodiment

10 works

Tree-number chronology

Across the 1700s and 1800s, dispersed life gathers around a stronger centre. Horizontal forms become an interdependent forest, while concentrated energy takes root as a single embodied tree.

111900–2000s

Inversion

10 works

Tree-number chronology

Across the 1900s and 2000s, luminous trees alternate with darker collective fields. The single axis becomes more vivid and upright, while the forest gathers as a dense chorus of presences.

122100–2200s

Concentration

10 works

Tree-number chronology

Across the 2100s and 2200s, the tree becomes an increasingly concentrated event. Solitary bodies rise with vivid internal force, while forest forms spread that energy across a collective field.

Memory Field

10 works

Tree-number chronology

In the 2300s, the solitary axis and the collective field coexist as two final forms of accumulated memory. Trees hold distinct bodies, while forests preserve their resonance as a shared visual archive.

Trace → Tree → Forest → Dissolution → Gathering

Life does not hold one shape.

A line begins as a living trace. It becomes a tree, disperses into a forest, and gathers again within darkness.

Read artist statement

This work follows cycles of creation and destruction, solitude and connection, memory and renewal. Fluid textures and broken forms hold the moment in which life is continuously formed, dissolved and reconstructed.

The artist will remain anonymous.
The work is the identity.

Two living
archives.

Every work belongs to a longer transformation—from one central body to a collective field.
