This work is based on a Ponderosa pine from the Navajo Loop Trail. The tree appears from three perspectives, representing my family. Like the tree itself, we are many angles of the same whole, connected through growth, memory, and love. “Genesis” envisions a revitalized Earth where trees once again thrive in community.
* Part of the "Revival" series, inspired by the ancient terrain of Bryce Canyon National Park and themes of ecological resilience and renewal. The work grew from memories of hiking its trails while pregnant with my second child, during a time of uncertainty about her growth. There among the amphitheaters, I witnessed weathered trees clinging to bare cliffs and stone, defying the arid terrain. Their perseverance became a source of hope for the Earth and my children.
