Resurrection functions as both an urban landmark and a commentary on cycles of transformation. The project bridges material reuse and large-scale fabrication, linking natural history with contemporary methods of surface and form manipulation. Through this process, the work proposes a continued life for the original tree through material translation rather than organic regeneration.
