Der kleine Bergjunge (The little mountain boy)

By  Bob Budd 2010
While working on an installation, I had to cut down a young tree. I remembered someone who had died, who had yet to see the world, so I 'planted' the tree on the mountain above the tree line, where trees never grow. I thought it would be nice for a tree to witness something they never see. Pitztal, Austria.
