Arborvitae: Tree of Life a Collection by Chris Hunt

Mirror Fox is honored to present Arborvitae, a profound collection that explores the delicate balance between strength and fragility. Drawing its title from the Latin term for "Tree of Life," this exhibition examines the intersection of nature and artifice through form.

Rather than traditional landscape depictions, each painting features a tree as a sculptural element. Meticulously constructed from shimmering aluminum wire and suspended against the canvas, these ethereal forms are inspired by the resilience of ancient forests. They evoke a sense of both awe and vulnerability, inviting viewers to contemplate the enduring power of nature against the fleeting quality of existence. The stark simplicity of these pieces creates a striking tension between organic silhouettes and industrial materiality, challenging our perceptions of the natural world.

Each work is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship and a deep connection to the environment.
