In the quiet woods, there are paths, seen, and hidden - choices to explore.  Walk among the trees - guardians of the woodland floor.  They shelter and guide all who live, or visit there.  They listen.  They can speak — to those who will listen. There is an attentive stillness.  

Here there is a path that leads to ourselves

In the green-lit hush of the forest, the living canopy gathers light and memory. Paths thread through the undergrowth—some worn, some only imagined—each one an invitation to enter a deeper awareness.

Artist’s Statement:

The trees stand as sentinels, their roots entwined with the earth in shared memory. Ferns unfurl across the forest floor, softening sound while marking subtle passageways through the living terrain. There is no single path here—only a network of choices, some visible, others sensed.

In this place, stillness is not absence. These trees speak in a dialogue older than language.  Walk among them — they shelter and guide all who live, or visit.  They listen. They speak — to those who will hear.  

Listen for the path that leads to ourselves
