The installation Spring explores the duality of the act of burning. Fifty oak seedlings growing from an island of ash are nourished by it. Burned books serve as the ground from which new life springs, unburdened with the weight of the bygone ideologies, it reinvents itself and emerges fragile but powerful, amidst the ashes of the past.
