Trees

Trees give us references to the past parkland of the site. The  cedar tree outside reception acts as a totem and shelter. The magnificent horse chestnut trees in the car park and the variety of trees on the boundary all provide a valuable habitat for wildlife. Some have been felled to make way for man and his interventions.
Here I am exploring the relationship between the trees and our lives, and to 'find the form within the material, not to use the material to find the form'.
(Guiseppe Penone 1996)
