Program Notes
The piece draws from two photos the composer took in a German forest. The first one focuses on one tree that stands out from the others. The second photo focuses on the rest of the trees: It’s a minimal landscape with all the trees aligned, guiding the eye to an infinite path where one loses the sight in the unknown. The connection between the two printings is that the tree is lost in the middle of the similarity, but one can find it when properly looking around. The work seeks to create a parallel between the minimal and the likeness of an object that seems infinite. However, in the middle of that immense repetition, one object can be brought to life, becoming the entire ecosystem’s core.
