With “Tree” Anfield presents us with a riotous Axis Mundi, the sacred tree of life, the ancient symbolic connection between Heaven and earth, the conscious and unconscious. With its simian alter egos acting in our stead, it pokes fun at our evolutionary history and our difficulty in seeing that we are an integral part of nature and the universe as a whole.

Whether read spiritually or psychologically, Tree asks us to consider the cyclical nature of life and what it takes to balance and make peace with our internal conflicts but always in the most playful, celebratory and joyous way.
