Poem about my avatar and her story
She is beautiful, walking through the landscape.
You see her and feel her pain.
She says nothing, yet you can hear her suffering.
She is great, majestic; you hear the sound of the chains she has taken upon herself, accepted.
scars shoot outward, life beneath the surface.
She helps, creates safety.
We know everything will be alright; as long as she is here, the world will endure.
She walks the earth as her ancestors did before her, and as her children will do, for the next hundreds of years.

In this project we had to find a natural organism and design a digital look, inspired by the chosen organism.
My choice:
The oak tree
The oak tree
My research question:
How can I, based on the oak tree's function, aesthetics and form, create digital only looks that reflect its intelligence, mystery and ability to survive the seasons.
