고대 그리스 로마의 돌조각에서 발견할 수 있는 작은 사물들을 추상적 형상으로 표현하였다. 이들 돌 조각의 바닥에 나무 한 그루가 누워 있는 것을 종종 볼 수 있다. 이 나무는 무겁지만 연약한 조각상을 눈에 띄지 않게 지탱해 주고 있다. 관객의 눈은 조각상에 집중되고 발아래 있는 지지대는 눈에 띄지 않고 넘어간다. 이 나무 형태는 보이지 않는 것을 탐구하고 기념하고 있다.

The tree forms are abstractions of similar objects found on historical Greek and Roman stone sculpture. At the foot of these stone pieces often lie a tree, an unnoticed support for the heavy yet fragile figure above. The viewers eye is drawn to the carved figure and the underlying support often goes unnoticed. The tree forms are an exploration and celebration of the unseen.
