The Memory of TreesThe Memory of Trees explores trees as witnesses to change, living records of time, weather, solitude, and loss. Wind alters their shape. Fog dissolves their edges. Time leaves wounds in their bark. Some grow surrounded by others; some remain alone. Each carries the visible traces of what has passed through it: seasons, storms, years, and absence.
These photographs consider trees not as symbols of permanence, but as quiet witnesses to transformation. Some are still growing; others remain standing long after life has left them. In both, the landscape preserves a history that cannot be fully known, only read through the traces of what came before.
Perhaps this is the mystery of trees: they endure not by escaping time, but by allowing time to become part of them.
