Roots of Resistance

Translated from Español
Post image 1

A work created on aluminum, where the metallic texture and light transform each detail into a distinct visual experience depending on the space and perspective.

In this piece I explore the constant tension between nature and human intervention. The tree, bare and twisted, represents the persistence of life in the face of the barriers we build. Its roots trapped in concrete symbolize how our structures seek to limit natural expansion, while nature continues to resist and adapt.

The dry leaves scattered on the ground evoke the impact of our actions and the fragility of the balance we share with the environment. The sepia tones bring a nostalgic atmosphere that invites reflection.

A piece that changes with the light and connects with the silent strength of nature.

Roots trapped in concrete and still fighting. That image is going to stay with me.

Even from the hardest foundations, one can still bloom. I think this shares an incredibly powerful story, especially to those who had a rough upbringing.

Love your tree. Trees are so difficult for me. I also love that you worked on copper. I'd like to know more about that. Anyway, welcome to the community. You're going to love it here.
