"Once I got the initial idea and started working, I began thinking about the wider picture of connectivity in all its forms - person to person, group to group, country to country, etc., and all the different ways that we are connected and networked – biologically, environmentally, electronically, and financially, to name a few. The piece is very much influenced by the current climate of the world and is a direct reflection of my own anxiety and my hope. The tree, as presented, is in a state of winter, but it is from winter that spring always arrives."
