A tree is a symbol of hope, and the broad technological landscape is inevitabely representative of the technology of our world today. Yet for this piece, I wanted to create this image in a totally new way. Many people have taken pictures or drawn trees, but none in relation to technology. For this image, I made a digital photomontage of a tree from satellite pictures of Seoul, my ethnic root and one of the most technologically advanced cities in the world today. This technology in our world has vast potential and is growing wider everyday, just as a tree would do in a healthy habitat. This piece is a fusion of two different ideas. In the end, it emphasizes the potential and hope within technology itself through the classical image of a tree.
