A State of Equilibrium
Ash, birch, douglas fir, elm, oak
Constructed using tension, these pieces reflect upon the delicate equilibrium and balance humans must strike when intervening in natural systems. Each component is needed to hold the system together. The wooden pegs – or wedges – are a metaphor for human interaction when managing woodlands; we can act as a stabiliser, or risk causing damage should we push too far.
