bokja tree of life tapestry 5

Bokja created a ‘Tree of Life’ based on ancient traditions of hanging wishes on a tree. The “Tree of Life” was handcrafted in their atelier from manipulated fabrics of recycled silk and delicate strands of thread and exhibit for the first time at Rossana Orlandi’s place. This tree is an interactive invitation to visitors to add ribbons with things that made them happy written on each one.

The Bokja tree is based on an ancient tradition of hanging wishes on a tree. Our tree asks its viewers to take a moment and think “What makes you happy?”
