WHISPERS FROM A TREE
—
KENDAL SIMICH
—
In Whispers from a Tree, Simich prepares
and prints leaves from the Ginkgo Biloba
tree to create a series of single edition
monotype prints. Through ritualized
inking and layering, she creates a visual
language, building compositions over
time. These layers re-present memory
and spirit, revealing motifs, inter-cultural
stories, and biological cycles. Each
embossed mark captures the paradox
of transience and longevity, highlighting
connections between past and present.
For the 80th-year memorial, she includes
works made with leaves from the
descendants of Hiroshima’s surviving
Ginkgo trees, sacred symbols of hope,
peace, and resilience.
