A Different Forest (2026) holds a physical trace of a moment often associated with loss. The cutting of hair, placed inside a jar, becomes both an archive and a point of transformation. What is typically framed as an ending is repositioned here as a necessary condition for something else to emerge.

The work moves against a linear understanding of healing. What is visible, the ash, the absence, the altered landscape, suggests damage. But beneath that surface, another process is already underway. One that cannot be seen immediately, and cannot be rushed.
