Artist Note. Tree Series (2021~2023)

The “Tree Series” began shortly after my husband and I moved from the United States to Japan in 2016. While exploring our new home, I discovered a unique tree with two distinct trunks growing together to form a single canopy. This reminded me of how my husband and I, once separate individuals, intertwined our lives to become one. I later learned these trees are called “Yeonri Ji” (連理枝)

Using a wooden canvas and carving knife, I sculpted the painted surface to create a sense of movement, making the rounded ends resemble water droplets or leaves. The flowers among the green leaves varied in shape and color, reflecting an impossible harmony in nature. This symbolizes a society where diverse races, cultures, and personalities coexist and flourish together.
