Materials: Fallen branches, yarn


My process in creating this piece was one of collecting, wrapping, healing, tending. I collected fallen branches, and gave them a new life in a sense by meticulously wrapping each one with green yarn, as if wrapping a bandage. To me, the gestalt of this product allows the whole becomes greater than the parts.
