This sculpture was commissioned by Saint Andrews College Dublin in 2019 to mark their 125-year anniversary. The brief was to make a sculpture to visually represent the motto from their school crest – Ardens Sed Virens – meaning Burning yet Flourishing. The sculpture is built from a forged bronze tree with 125 burnished leaves, on a stack of books, made out of corten steel with a bark-style effect.
