Throughout all of human existence trees have served people throughout the world not only physically but also symbolically to represent what words sometimes cannot. The wild trees represented in our exhibition go beyond the simple architecture of roots, trunks and branches. Each photograph holds its own universe of complexities and metaphors, not meant to be taken as a literal translation of a reality but a complete interpretation.
From the dancing silhouettes of the Flaming Birch to the sun beating off the bark of the Boab tree, every tree has its own history beyond the rings of its trunk.

Spanning minimalist steel sculpture, Neo Geo abstraction, evocative landscapes, experimental still life, and digitally manipulated photographic works on industrial materials, Mélange sets each style in sharp relief. Rather than blending, the exhibition invites viewers to engage with the tension, humor, and dialogue that arise when divergent artistic languages collide.
