Root Slice by Mother Nature, Wood, Unique, 150cm high by 155cm wide by 27cm deep, Nature, Tree sculpture

This piece is a unique wooden sculpture measuring 150 cm high, 155 cm wide, and 27 cm deep. The piece presents a large tree root sliced into a segment and mounted upright, transforming a natural element into an abstract work of art.

The root’s original twists and gnarls remain visible, giving the piece a sense of organic movement. Its curves and protrusions flow naturally, creating visual interest from every angle. The slice emphasizes the root’s internal structure, with rings, grooves, and textures clearly exposed. These details reveal the life and growth of the tree, while the upright presentation gives the form a sculptural and almost monumental quality.

The surface has been carefully smoothed in areas, while other sections retain the rugged texture of the wood, preserving its raw, earthy character. Light plays across the varied textures, accentuating the contrast between polished and natural surfaces.

Overall, Root Slice merges natural beauty with human intention. It captures the inherent complexity of a tree’s root system, while presenting it in a striking and abstract way. The piece encourages viewers to consider the hidden forms within nature and to appreciate the intricate shapes that exist beneath the surface of a tree. Its scale, texture, and form make it both a contemplative object and a commanding presence.
