About this artwork
The work is based on the interpretation of live edges, the utmost layer of growth right beneath the bark. The way these edges are growing is largely influenced by events such as weather, climate, infection through fungi and bacteria or other impacts.
By confronting two live edges, the gap between them becomes a visual frontier in which the dynamic flowing lines converge.
The title "Convergence" referes to the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITC),… a meteorological phenomenon formed near the equator. Within the ITC, trade winds from the northern and southern hemisphere collide, consequently leading to extreme weather events like heavy rainfall and thunderstorms.
"Convergence" tells a poetic story about the complex relationship between cosmological events and the individual microcosmos of each tree.

« I explore the dynamic aesthetics of natural surroundings and apply them to objects that serve as a medium to remind us of being part of something larger than ourselves. »
Gabriel Tarmassi is a sculptor and designer based in Germany whose pieces are largely influenced by natural surroundings, such as landscapes, dunes, and waves, as well as the dynamic nature of these structures. Tarmassi's works often question the relationship between humans and the environment. In his artistic process, he exclusively creates with wood, employing traditional woodworking tools and modern machinery.
