Impressive close-up of a tree trunk with its annual rings clearly visible. The concentric rings, carefully etched into the dark wood, tell the story of time gone by. The deep cracks radiating from the centre of the annual rings suggest a long history and perhaps even a trauma the tree experienced during its lifetime. The contrast between the warm, golden tones of the annual rings and the dark, almost black wood gives the work a sense of depth and richness.
The texture of the wood is almost palpable, with the rough grains and unevenness evident. This work captures the essence of nature and the inexorable progression of time in a way that is both visually captivating and symbolically profound. The sculpture can be seen as a meditation on the impermanence of life and the inevitable marks left by time.
The dark colouring and focus on the annual rings give the work an almost mystical quality, with the rings stretching out like the circles in a pond, growing wider and wider and encompassing the entire composition.
