Divided Spirits in Quiet Growth, measuring 71" x 27" x 3", captures the quiet resilience of birch trees through a sculptural form that invites close attention and reflection. The piece reveals a three-dimensional birch branch splitting into two vertical offshoots, each textured with intricate wool and silk that mimic the smooth white bark and naturally occurring dark knots of the tree. At its base, soft green moss-like details anchor the branch in a suggestion of forest floor life, enhancing the sense of organic growth and subtle vitality. Mounted vertically against a neutral background, the work encourages a moment of stillness, as if pausing to observe a solitary branch reaching upward and outward — a delicate balance between division and unity that echoes the quiet cycles of nature.
