This unique sculptural piece is a dead branch of the toothbrush tree (Salvadora persica), carefully chlorinated and transformed into a natural work of art. The branch, once stripped of its bark and purified by the chlorination process, presents a complex and organic structure. Its irregular shapes, knots and delicate ramifications are preserved, highlighting the raw beauty of nature.
The wood, now devoid of life, takes on a whitish or slightly yellowish tint after treatment, accentuating its sculptural and almost fossil appearance. The texture of the wood is both smooth and marked by natural veins and cracks, testifying to its living origin. This transformation gives the branch an appearance that is both ancient and contemporary.
The branch is mounted on a base, which is made of black wood, offering a clear contrast with the organic texture of the wood. The base, solid and discreet, serves to stabilize the piece while highlighting the visual lightness of the branch.
Subtle LED lighting is integrated to illuminate the branch, creating plays of light and shadow on its contours and highlighting its intricate details. The strategically placed LEDs highlight the natural curves and variations in the wood's texture, adding an almost ethereal dimension to the work. The soft light emanating from the LEDs gives the branch an aura of mystery and transforms the whole into a contemporary art installation, perfect for a modern interior space.
Together, the toothbrush tree branch, base and LED lighting form a harmonious composition that celebrates both nature and design, transforming a simple natural element into a captivating work of art.
