The Shaman and the Healing Tree

Kawakawa tree, milk box, mirror, custom made shelf
by Sonja van Kerkhoff, 2021

installation       

Made for the E Tiaki | Take Care show in response to a zoom session and a photograph of Jessy Rahman (The Hague, The Netherlands). The photograph of Jessy was taken in August 2020 next to the fig tree adjacent to the Quartair Gallery and Jessy's studio.
We discussed the covid-19 pandemic and Sonja offered the Kawakawa tree (a New Zealand native with healing properties)
for Jessy 'in quaratine' in his shaminist mask.
