The idea of a tree ²⁰⁰⁸

This bench was created using solar energy. A solar panel provided the energy to pass cotton threads through a colour- and glue bath and then wrap them around a mould. The solar intensity determined the colour and thickness of the threads: the more intensely the sun shone, the thicker and paler the threads. The idea of a tree is a three-dimensional representation of one day of sunlight – just like a tree, you might say.
