In the series of works, a small figure climbs high among the trees. Why is she there? Why so high, far from others? The forest is drawn partly as abstract details, depicting the rhythms of trees, lichens and leaves. Sometimes the attention of the works is focused on the micro level, sometimes on a wider perspective. The series of works is realized with serigraphy technique and it has a visual narrative, a continuum of movement and rhythm.

In connection with the works one can hear the soundworld The Canopy / The Roots Latvusto composed by Sebastian Boulter.
