Leaping Greenly Spirits of Trees
by Doré
The title is from a poetic line by e e cummings. The scene depicts
a leaping, joyous branch dancing in the frame of a planter box, surrounded
by forest colours of greens and browns. An elegant tall spindle (the
observer) stands at the right of the stage.
An old rusted saw hangs on the side of the planter, suggesting the
destruction of the forest with all its joyous expression. The saw is
silent, but ominous.
I have used planter boxes for several assemblages. Their rounded
form gives the impression of an intimate theater presentation.
