The day of personal expression, the rootless egotism of “Modern Art” and modern architecture with its completely false values is now over. It is a middle class luxury we can no longer afford. The realities of existence are pressing in on us from all sides.
We can still try to create beauty so that an honest, skilled and creative activity is possible, that we can rest for the night with an honest face.
Instead of a long running and bloody battle with nature, to dominate her, we can walk in step with a tree to release the joy in her grains, to join with her to realize her potentials, to enhance the environments of man.
It is an art and a soul satisfying adventure to walk the forests of the world, to commune with trees, to take them where mature or even dead and, going through the dozens of creative acts needed, to bring this living material to the work bench, ultimately to give it a second life.
