(2020)

This temporary public art work is centred around a gold gilded pear tree that is underplanted with companion plants and edible herbs. As the tree grows, the gold will crack and fall away, the art will breakdown, and the community will be left with a mature pear tree, berries, oregano, and thyme. Complimenting the edible vegetation are granite boulders as seating and a reclaimed brick pathway that leads residents between the tree and a repurposed planter box.
