The Tree of Life

The ‘Tree of Life poster from a distance looks like a cross section of a tree trunk out. A closer look reveals, however, that it is not the black circles to wood rings, but for hundreds of different silhouettes of animals. The project aims to draw attention to the deforestation of the rainforest and the consequent destruction of the habitat of the animals.

Henrique Oliveira, the Brazilian emerging artist known for his spatial wooden pieces whose irregular forms devour large spaces which give you the sense that you are actually inhabiting someone’s body

”I believe that the message is never art itself, but instead, the lack of a message is a characteristic that makes some creations interesting to me…my works may propose a spatial experience, an aesthetic feeling, a language development and many more nominations to refer to the relation it establishes with the viewer. But, any attempt to find a message would fail.”. - Henrique Oliveira
