Reconnector / Alder
A grey spalted alder Reconnector. You can see the spalted in its pattern. THis grey alder is a tree that has one life life task. To bind the riverbank. To keep the banks solid. I find this so poetic. A life in service.
This one lives close to my river and close to the fjord. It is dense and solid.
Volume: 17 cm long
It comes with a personally signed note that tells you about the project and your reconnectors story.
Care: Keep me dry and keep me close.
About the project :
Reconnectors is an art project reconnecting people with trees and trees with people.
They are meant to be held close and the calming effect of wood will appear.
Hundreds of people on all continents own one. Having one you will be part of a large community that is reconnected.
They are all shaped with an axe, knife and sometimes a chisel.
From fallen trees that lives on Janniks land.
