Radiant Tree, Ed Whitmore, 2018, metal effects paint, 48 x 36 in. / 121.92 x 91.44 cm.

Bas relief eucalyptus tree painted with iron and copper metal effects paint then sprayed with chemical reagent and oxidized to evocative shades of brown and green. The hand chiseled background creates a shimmering effect. The delicate branches seem to reach up to the sky.
