Images on the internet are endless. I find it fascinating to see what images interest other people and what images they choose to represent certain things. A perfect example is ‘The Tree of Life’.
The Tree of Life is a representation of a spiritual perspective of nature, so I decided to Google images for a look at what people see as representing nature for them. I then copied these images and printed them out in miniature and then arranged them in an artificial landscape maquette to make a forest of the images.
The outcome was a lot of unnatural images of trees, charts and new age folly. Is society so far removed from nature that we have to invent unreal (and tacky) fantasy versions of it?
