Fortune Tree Series
Tree-like / Tree-Inspired structures that hold fortunes inspired by my journal entries. These are interactive pieces, currently a series of three.
Fortune Tree V1: The Teenage Diary as an Oracle
Wire Tree with hand-stamped fortunes folded into the branches. The intention was to imbue the energy of the moment into each fortune by hand-stamping individual letters, and each fortune is a direct quote from my teenage journals.
Fortune Tree V2: The Tree of Life
An illustrated tree inspired by Persian and Muslim Mughul era art and rugs. Each flower had a handwritten fortune pinned to it for the public to take.
Fortune Tree V3: Swallow Your Fate
Exploring the relationship between capitalism and spirituality this is a fortune gumball machine. Twenty-five cents will get you a fortune-wrapped pill, read the fortune and take the pill as directed for the fortune to take effect.
