“All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom.”

Albert Einstein

When I went through the creation process of  my ‘Tree of Life’, I learned a lot about its concept as I found out that it has been used in religion, biology, philosophy, and mythology since the beginning of time.  

The Mayans believed that Heaven, Earth and Underworld were connected by the tree of life and all things grew since the beginning of creation by flowing through its branches.  

The center of this piece is the cross that represents the source of all creation and connects with everything, the branches come from the stump, the stump comes from the roots and the roots intertwine with the branches.  

The heart of the tree is the all-seeing Eye of God that represents faith and stability.  It’s the window to our soul, the Beginning and the End.
