Seeing 2011 (#87)

For your consideration: a surrealistic terrain derived from the passage of years . . .

All things must pass, yet it is from the substance such passages that the universe is renewed. Thus — exposed by the relentless and unforgiving slice of a saw — the map of a eucalyptus' lifespan, writ in dead wood, newly yields a swirling and undulating abstraction à la Van Gogh and Pollack.
