This is the third work in The Forest of Celebration series and continues the central ideas developed in the preceding works. Above ground, intersecting branches form a wooden structure. The grid, crossed diagonally by a substantial branch, becomes a symbol of the forest's strength and resilience. Below ground, the ceaseless generation and circulation of life unfold as a microcosmic activity comparable to the vast processes of the universe. At the top of the composition, I placed a star-shaped sign as an icon linking this small world of living organisms to the larger cosmos.
