Rebirth

“Everything is to blame for the rapid disintegration of time, over which there is no constant vigilance to keep watch.” Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass, Bruno Schulz As I work on the tree trunk, whose form reminds me of a human figure, I reveal its refined and smooth core. By removing what is old, rough, decayed, and dry, a transformation takes place. Space for new forms is created through decomposition and disintegration. The threads woven through the already dried leaves represent the desire to preserve that which cannot be preserved. The old, dried leaves symbolize the objects of those desires, beneath which lies a pure soul. Only dedication and patience can reveal true nature. Rebirth is a process that does not begin at the surface but emerges from the depths.
