myth, the sacred


My grandfather told my siblings and me stories of Celtic mythology, how druids cut mistletoe with a golden sickle. These memories of druids influence my approach in representing trees as a sacred element. By sacred, I mean being transplanted into another dimension that has very little to do with the idea of nature existing to be exploited by human beings.
