Tracing Trees is a series of six paintings patterning tree traces from India, China, Germany, Belgium, and Turkey.


The yellow and blue colors and 'fragmental' depiction of trees from around the world evoke an artifical effect representing the estrangement and disconnection of human beings from nature.
This series wants to be a loud call for awareness of our interconnectedness with all other forms of life. 

'Tracing' in the title refers to layered meanings: 'to track down', 'to find the origins', 'to uncover', 'to sketch', 'to map',  'sign', 'echo' , 'remnant', 'survival'.
