EMF-01


Every scar on a tree reflects its growth and history and creates its unique characteristics. While looking at a tree's scars, with their natural beauty and warmth, my mind wonders and imagines the tree's history.
The main material used is Japanese cypress obtained from thinning, the practice of selective removal of trees in the forest. Applying a minimal design, I conserve the veauty of nature to create this work. In places, I have also used recyclable steel for the base and energy efficient light emitting diode (LED) light source.

By using such recycled materials, I think of the materials and environment of the future.
