“Branches of palm are its spars and rails, fibres of palm are its woven sails, and the rope is of palm that idly trails!”
-John Greenleaf Whittier
The concept for this sculpture was to deconstruct nature, in this case a Kentia palm tree to an abstract form of itself. The structure will be created from 11 gauge cor-ten steel plate with a natural oxidized finish.
