Forest and Egg

A meteoric black egg quietly sits in an algae-filled stream, its artificial presence is surreal, as life in the forest inherently is. The egg is the original alchemical symbol for the first beginning and the last end of life. And this scene, in which the electric green of the algae could be as much toxic pollution as it could be primordial life, suggests the deep past and near future, the beginning and the end, are right here together.
