Apple tree art question


Sutton

Recommended Posts

More than 50 years ago, an artist exhibited a re-created bare tree. Like a life-size dead sculpture.

I've forgotten the details. Hope you can help.

Believe it was an apple. The tree was excavated whole and every branch and twig was cut and saved, every root exposed intact then cut, recorded until it was dismantled enough to be moved. Each piece was labeled ready for its reconstruction back onto the stem in the gallery.

It had a mirroring affect, as above so below.

A bit like this.1019615462_appletree.jpg.1ca8f72de5c0f11d5cdca56b95b42f0f.jpg

 

Can anyone remember?
