It has been been many years, since anyone had last seen her, the Mother Tree, the bearer of life. Many feared that the worst had happened and that she was gone along with all of her kind. No one would have been surprised, as we knew that she has been too good for us. Our greed, our jealousy was like raging sea, destroying, consuming everything around us. However, there was a rumor of a child who had seen the tree recently, somehow it was always the children who found it and yet when they would lead an adult to the spot, it would already be gone. Some believe that the kids are playing tricks, but I know that's not the case. I had seen a tree myself when I was a child, but no one believed me. I am wanderer searching never losing that last glimmer of hope that I will find her once again.

Being stuck home for so long with the quarantine made me miss nature so much. This art is a reminder to appreciate nature, before it is potentially gone and everything else important in our lives. I wanted to show how beautiful plants and the city can be together, that they're not mutually exclusive. The animation and glitch effects are my own, and I made them manually in Photoshop using various layer adjustments and transform tools. I prefer having control over the glitch effect rather than using a generative program.
