2022 Discarded tree, plastic

My works are mainly made from discarded wood, concrete and plastic.

The wood is a symbol of nature and the concrete and plastic are a symbol of artificial objects.

Humans destroy and manage nature to make their lives more comfortable, myself included.

Like food wrapped in plastic wrap.

This work represents the domination of nature by humans. And there is a small space between the wood and the concrete.

This is a message that "there must be a certain distance between nature and humans. It is a kind of social distance.

Humans should pay more attention to nature.

The dead trees used in this piece were discarded on a street corner in Manhattan. 

I collected the bark of those trees to make objects and covered them with plastic.

Humans depend on nature for our lives, but we sometimes fail to face that fact. 

We only see it dimly.
