Intertwined Roots explores the secret underground world of a tree's dynamic root systems. The roots hold a complex network and connection between the soil, mycelium and other tree's root systems. This sculpture is made up of hundreds and thousands of tiny knotted stitches, using cotton, polyester, gold thread and wool. The colours chosen represent the real root structure that I was inspired by which is from a Māhoe tree, sourced near where I live north of Auckland.
