In this work, sand pigment interacts with natural matter, revealing natural geometry and transforming a familiar landscape into a system of expressive configurations of lines and volumes. In an ordinary setting, these intertwining patterns blend into the background, but the contrasting layer of sand reveals the structure, rhythm and natural architecture of the branches, giving a new perspective on the unity of form, colour and the essence of matter.

The coloured pigment highlights the different levels of branching, helping to consider the depth and feel the ‘sculptural’ nature of the tree. The material of sand sprayed onto the bark visualises how the branches traverse the space, forming a kind of ‘grid’. The natural forest landscape with its soft hues serves as a neutral canvas on which the brightly coloured contours of the branches are perceived almost as an abstract drawing.
