Installation at PATHS Trail, Portland, ME

August 22 – September 20, 2026

Slow down and look closely. This installation invites a new view of nature. Take a moment to notice the intricate forms, textures, and structures that you might have otherwise missed.

Fifteen individual elements draw attention to selected details of trees, roots, flowers, and other natural forms.

The artist has added locally foraged, harvested, or donated plant materials, creatively processed but still carrying traces of their original habitat. Each item frames and draws attention to details of the trail. Viewers are draw into novel interactions with familiar elements of nature. A root becomes a curve; bark becomes a surface; a flower becomes architecture. You see what you might have overlooked, with a shift in culture and scale.
