Detail of "leafless)its" from the installation.

Each leaf had one word from this poem by e.e.cummings:

now all the fingers of this tree(darling)have
hands,and all the hands have people;and
more each particular person is(my love)
alive than every world can understand

and now you are and i am now and we're
a mystery which will never happen again,
a miracle which has never happened before-
and shining this our now must come to then

our then shall be some darkness during which
fingers are without hands;and i have no
you:and all trees are(any more than each
leafless)its silent in forevering snow

-but never fear(my own,my beautiful
my blossoming)for also then's until
